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

objectiveThe aim of this study is to investigate risk factors for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in severe acute brain injury (SABI) patients and construct a nomogram-based predictive model.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on 200 SABI patients admitted to Lishui Hospital between January 2021 and April 2025, who were randomly allocated into training group (n = 140) and validation group (n = 60). ARDS risk factors were identified and incorporated into a predictive model. Model performance was evaluated via Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve), calibration plots, and decision curve analysis (DCA).

resultsMultivariate logistic regression revealed three independent predictors of ARDS in SABI patients: Sepsis, PaO₂/FiO₂, Pulmonary infection, (all P < 0.05). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.778 for the training set and 0.754 for the validation set. Calibration curves demonstrated good predicted-observation agreement, while DCA confirmed the clinical utility of the nomogram.

conclusionThis study developed and validated a nomogram prediction model incorporating three variables: Sepsis, PaO₂/FiO₂ and Pulmonary infection. The model demonstrated good discriminative ability and calibration in predicting the risk of ARDS in patients with SABI, thereby facilitating early risk stratification and supporting clinical decision-making.
