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

backgroundThe COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the impact of acute respiratory illnesses on long-term morbidity. However, the long-term morbidity associated with non-COVID-19 pneumonia is unclear, particularly in patients who are receiving mechanical ventilation. RESEARCH QUESTION: What is the burden of 12-month long-term cognitive impairment (LTCI), functional impairment, psychological distress, and quality of life in critically ill patients receiving mechanical ventilation for non-COVID-19 pneumonia? STUDY DESIGN AND

methodsThis single-site prospective cohort study enrolled patients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia receiving mechanical ventilation in the emergency department and ICUs from June 18, 2018, through August 30, 2021. Global cognition at 12 months was measured by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment for the Blind, with higher scores representing better cognition. Secondary outcomes were basic and instrumental activities of daily living (ADLs), physical function, psychological distress (posttraumatic stress disorder [PTSD], depression, and anxiety), and quality of life.

resultsOf 408 patients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia (63.4%), 96 patients survived and completed the 12-month follow-up. Among survivors of non-COVID-19 pneumonia, 57.3% met the criteria for LTCI, 13.5% showed executive dysfunction, 17.7% showed impairments in at least 1 basic ADL, 51.0% showed impairments in at least 1 instrumental ADL, 44.0% demonstrated physical disability, 17.8% met the criteria for PTSD, 37.8% met the criteria for depression, 46.7% met the criteria for anxiety, and 19.4% rated their quality of life as poor at 12 months.

interpretationA substantial proportion of patients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia receiving mechanical ventilation met criteria for LTCI. Additionally, many demonstrated difficulty performing ADLs, showed physical disability, and experienced psychological sequelae, leading to poor quality of life at 12 months. Interventions designed to reduce these adverse outcomes are needed.
