Risk Factors and Clinical Outcomes of Post-Extubation Stridor in Pediatric Intensive Care.

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.
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
objectivesTo assess risk factors for post-extubation stridor in children and its impact on clinical outcomes.
methodsProspective cohort study with children aged from 0 to 13 years who were intubated or underwent orotracheal intubation in the pediatric intensive care units (PICU) of two tertiary public hospitals. The outcome of interest was the occurrence of post-extubation stridor. The information collected included patient characteristics, comorbidities, history of airway manipulation, and factors related to orotracheal intubation. A logistic regression was used to identify potential risk factors for post-extubation stridor; data were analyzed until hospital discharge, death, or referral to another facility.
resultsA total of 239 children were included, with a median age of 1.3 years and a duration of intubation of three days. Post-extubation stridor was observed in 57.3% of children. A multivariate analysis included prehospital or non-specialized hospital intubation, trauma or complications during intubation, and orotracheal intubation longer than seven days as risk factors for stridor. Children with stridor had a longer PICU length of stay, longer duration of invasive mechanical ventilation, and were often managed with non-invasive ventilation (
conclusionsRisk factors for post-extubation stridor included intubation performed in prehospital or non-specialized hospitals, orotracheal intubation longer than seven days, and trauma or complications during intubation. Children with stridor had a worse prognosis, with longer stays in the PICU and on mechanical ventilation and higher rates of extubation failure.
