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

Objective: To investigate the incidence and independent risk factors of intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and to develop and validate a corresponding risk prediction model. Methods: In this retrospective study, 277 SAP patients admitted to the ICU between January 2020 and March 2024 were enrolled. ICU-AW was diagnosed using the Medical Research Council sum score (MRC-SS), with a score <48 defining the condition. Patients were randomly split into a modeling cohort (70%) for model development and a validation cohort (30%) for internal validation. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to identify factors associated with ICU-AW. A nomogram was constructed based on independent predictors identified from the multivariate analysis. The model's performance was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and the Hosmer-Lemeshow (H-L) test. Results: The incidence of ICU-AW was 38.6% (107/277) among the enrolled SAP patients. Multivariate analysis identified age ≥51 years (OR=5.83), APACHE II score ≥14 (OR=11.19), ICU length of stay ≥7 days (OR=12.61), use of neuromuscular blocking agents (OR=3.34), D-lactate ≥41.69 mg/L (OR=2.92), and presence of nutritional risk (OR=5.34) as independent risk factors for ICU-AW. Early rehabilitation care was a significant protective factor (OR=0.18). The prediction nomogram incorporating these seven factors demonstrated excellent discrimination, with an AUC of 0.922 (95% CI: 0.884-0.959) in the modeling cohort and 0.918 (95% CI: 0.873-0.963) in the validation cohort. The H-L test indicated good calibration in both cohorts (P=0.903 and P=1.000, respectively). Conclusion: ICU-AW is a common complication in SAP patients. We developed a nomogram that effectively integrates readily available clinical variables (age, disease severity, ICU stay, medication use, D-lactate, nutritional status, and rehabilitation care) to individually predict the risk of ICU-AW. This model may assist clinicians in early identification of high-risk patients and facilitate targeted preventive strategies.
