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

During last years, new methods of advanced ventilatory monitoring have been introduced to implement lung-protective ventilation. We present a unique case of a 66-year-old female admitted to the ICU with severe unilateral lung injury due to COVID-19 pneumococcal superinfection. By combining electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and esophageal pressure measurements, individualized positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration was performed. Initially, high PEEP levels (18 cmH
