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 compare the sedation practices of adult intubated patients with COVID-19-related Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (C-ARDS) and ARDS from other causes, and their impact on clinical outcomes in a tertiary hospital. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort on the sedation practices of adult intubated patients with C-ARDS and non-C-ARDS admitted to the intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital from January 2021 to December 2021. Electronic medical records were reviewed to obtain sedative use, sedative dosages, clinical outcomes, and complications. Results: Among the 150 included patients, 112 had C-ARDS, and 38 had non-C-ARDS. The C-ARDS group showed a significant difference with the non-C-ARDS group in terms of BMI (24.11 vs. 21.09 kg/m Conclusion: Patients with C-ARDS had higher sedation requirements in terms of dosage and number of sedatives. The use of multiple sedatives was significantly associated with shock-requiring pressor. We recommend the development of a sedation protocol to guide sedation practices and monitoring of complications in the critically ill.
