Epidemiology of the acute respiratory distress syndrome and the prognostic validity of SpO
Article in Critical care (London, England), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The Global consensus definition of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) broadened the syndrome to include patients on high-flow nasal cannula and hypoxia as defined by the ratio of the saturation of oxygen to fraction of inhaled oxygen (SFR). We sought to compare the incidence and outcomes of ARDS under the 2012 Berlin versus 2023 Global definitions, and to examine the relationship between SFR-derived categories of severity and mortality, in a prospective cohort of critically ill patients with sepsis. Of the 950 included patients, 466 (49%) met criteria for ARDS under the Global definition and 427 (45%) met criteria for ARDS under the Berlin definition during the 6-day follow-up period. Among patients with ARDS, the Global definition allowed for ARDS qualification a median of 3.0 h earlier than the Berlin definition. Mortality was comparable between the Global and Berlin definitions at onset but substantially lower for patients who never went onto meet the Berlin definition. SFR was predictive of 30-day mortality and exhibited moderate correlation with the ratio of partial pressure of oxygen to fraction of inhaled oxygen (PFR). Our work establishes an increased incidence and modestly decreased time to diagnosis of ARDS under the Global definition and supports the prognostic validity of SFR.
