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: The impact of blood pressure variability (BPV) following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is not well established. This study aims to investigate the relationship between BPV after the return of spontaneous circulation and clinical outcomes in OHCA patients. Methods: Non-traumatic OHCA patients were enrolled retrospectively. Continuous intra-arterial blood pressure monitoring was recorded and documented hourly. BPV was assessed using the standard deviation and coefficient of variation within the first 24- and 48-h. The clinical outcomes included 30-day mortality and poor neurological outcomes at discharge, defined as Cerebral Performance Category scale 3-5. Results: A total of 217 non-traumatic OHCA patients who survived more than 24 h were enrolled. There were 119 deaths within 30 days and 165 poor neurological outcomes at discharge. High BPVs were independently associated with greater risk of 30-day mortality (standard deviation of mean arterial pressure: hazard ratio [HR] = 1.06, 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 1.03-1.10, Conclusion: Greater BPV during the early post-resuscitation phase is strongly linked to increased mortality and poor neurological outcomes in OHCA patients.
