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.

Abstract

Objectives: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) remains a leading cause of mortality, with low survival rates despite advancements in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and emergency care. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the HemaShock® Auto-Transfusion Tourniquet (A-TT) in OHCA patients by assessing its impact on ACLS quality, ROSC rate and end-tidal CO Methods: This was a feasibility pilot study conducted in the pre-hospital setting of Maribor, Slovenia. The study was registered at ClinicalTrials.org #NCT06153160 and was approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee. Twenty-four OHCA patients were enrolled and divided into two groups: 12 patients received standard advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) plus A-TT (Study Group), while 12 received only ACLS (Control Group). The primary efficacy outcome was the difference in PetCO Results: There were no significant demographic differences between the two groups.. A-TT was successfully applied in 12 patients, with one case being ineffective. Return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was achieved in 50 % of the Study Group and 33 % of the Control Group (NS). PetCO Conclusions: The use of A-TT in OHCA patients did not interfere with ACLS protocols and did not reduce ROSC rate. The significant transient increase in PetCO Open science: The pilot study was registered into Clinical Trials in February 2023. The trial number is NCT06153160. The trial protocol can be assessed through the webpage cinicaltrials.gov.org.
