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
Objective: To evaluate the impact of inhalation injury on the outcomes of patients with burns, especially ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and mortality. Methods: Single-center retrospective study of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) with burn injuries. Data were obtained from medical records. The primary outcome was VAP incidence in patients with or without inhalation injury. Secondary outcomes included need and duration of mechanical ventilation (MV), incidence of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), rates of reintubation and tracheostomy, need for vasopressors and renal replacement therapy (RRT), length of ICU and hospital stay, hospital mortality, and comparison between survivors and non-survivors. Results: From January 2017 to December 2023, 242 patients with a median burn surface area of 23% (15%-37%) were included. The incidence of inhalation injury was 9.9% ( Conclusion: The incidence of VAP was higher in patients with inhalation injury than in those without inhalation injury; however, the mortality was similar.
