Retrospective Evaluation of the Association of Pulmonary Contusion Volume as Assessed by Computed Tomography With Mortality and Provision of Mechanical Ventilation in Traumatized Dogs (2019-2023): 27 Cases.
Article in Journal of veterinary emergency and critical care (San Antonio, Tex. : 2001). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 evaluate the association between the percentage of pulmonary contusion volume (PPCV) found on computed tomography (CT) and survival to discharge or implementation of mechanical ventilation (MV) in a cohort of dogs with thoracic trauma.
designRetrospective multicenter study (March 2019 to April 2023).
settingTwo veterinary teaching hospitals and one diagnostic imaging telemedicine service. ANIMALS: Twenty-seven client-owned dogs with thoracic trauma and CT findings compatible with pulmonary contusions.
interventionsNone. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsMedical records were retrospectively searched for dogs with thoracic trauma and CT findings compatible with pulmonary contusions. Demographic parameters, PPCV, presence of pneumothorax or pleural effusion, number of fractured ribs, provision of MV, and outcome were recorded. CT studies were reviewed, and PPCV was calculated using commercial software following a standardized protocol. Nonsurvivors had a higher PPCV (median, 49.6% [range, 4.2-81.3]) than survivors (median, 6.5% [range, 0.1-52.9]; p = 0.005). Dogs that received MV also had a higher PPCV (median, 41.4% [range, 4.2-81.3]) compared with dogs that did not (median, 7.5% [range, 0.1-66.7]; p = 0.015).
conclusionsIn this population of dogs with thoracic trauma, nonsurvivors and dogs that received MV had a higher PPCV, as evidenced by CT.
