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

aimThis study aimed to develop prediction models and conduct risk stratifications for patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) to identify patients who could benefit from targeted temperature management (TTM) at 33°C.

methodsA retrospective analysis was carried out on 368 patients and the primary outcome was the neurological outcome at discharge evaluated by the Cerebral Performance Categories (CPC) scale. Six variables were utilized to construct prediction models via six methodologies, and the Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test was used to analyze the efficacy of TTM at 33℃ under diverse risk stratifications.

resultsA total of 264 eligible patients were divided into the development cohort and test set. The identified predictors comprised bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), pupillary light reflex, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score, lactate, serum calcium (Ca

conclusionPrediction models developed from early variables can predict the neurological prognosis of OHCA, and the efficacy of 33℃ TTM may be related to severity.
