1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Cardiac arrest (CA) is a critical condition that would cause high mortality. Fibrinogen, as a macromolecular protein involved in both inflammatory response and coagulation regulation, was reported to be associated with a series of life-threatening conditions. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between fibrinogen level and prognosis of patients after cardiac arrest. Methods: This study is a retrospective study utilizing the database MIMIC-IV version 1.0. Logistic regression and Cox proportional hazards regression were applied to explore the relationship between fibrinogen and in-hospital, 30-day, 90-day mortality of patients after cardiac arrest. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was also drawn. Subgroup analysis was conducted to explore whether the association remains in various subgroups. In addition, propensity score matching (PSM) was used to adjust confounding factor. Results: 525 eligible patients were enrolled in total. Among them, 238 patients survived and 287 died during ICU hospitalization. Kaplan-Meier curve showed significant difference in survival probability ( Conclusion: The presence of reduced fibrinogen level indicates a heightened risk of mortality in patients after cardiac arrest, whereas elevated fibrinogen level may be not associated with mortality.
