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

Studies examining long-term prognosis after successful cardiac resuscitation (SCR) are limited owing to the high mortality and challenges of long-term follow-up. Consequently, data regarding brain disorders are lacking. In this retrospective study, we examined the incidence of brain disorders following SCR and explored the association between various confounding factors using data from the South Korean National Health Insurance Service. Patients who underwent SCR between 2010 and 2017 were recruited, with washout/follow-up periods of 2/3 years, yielding 572 and 1,144 patients in the successful cardiac resuscitation and control groups, respectively, following propensity score matching. Hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for brain disorders (stroke, epilepsy, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease) were estimated using multivariate Cox proportional hazards models. Patients who underwent SCR had a 1.82-fold higher risk of developing brain disorders (95% CI: 1.40-2.37) than controls. Hazard ratios were 1.68 (95% CI: 1.09-2.61), 2.37 (95% CI: 1.58-3.53), and 1.56 (95% CI: 1.02-2.40) for stroke, epilepsy, and Alzheimer's disease, respectively. However, for Parkinson's disease, the hazard ratio (1.35 [95% CI: 0.48-3.78]) was not statistically significant, likely due to the small sample (15 patients). This study confirmed the increased risk of brain disorders in patients who undergo SCR.
