Post-intensive care syndrome: a state-of-the-art review.
Review in Singapore medical journal, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
abstractPost-intensive care syndrome (PICS) refers to a constellation of chronic symptoms and deficits experienced by both adult and paediatric survivors of critical illness. These may include impairment in physical, cognitive and mental domains several months after admission to the intensive care unit. Affected patients may experience chronic pain, sleep disturbances and swallowing dysfunction, which may impact their quality of life. Beyond the medical consequences, PICS poses psychological and financial challenges to both patients and their caregivers. This state-of-the-art review provides a comprehensive overview of current evidence on PICS, including key risk factors, screening instruments and potential treatment strategies. Future efforts should prioritise standardised data collection, family-centred care and restoration of health-related quality of life.
