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

BACKGROUND AND

aimOur study aimed to determine the in-hospital mortality rate among granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) or microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) hospitalizations complicated with acute respiratory failure (ARF) in the US and determine prognostic factors during hospitalization.

methodWe performed a retrospective cohort analysis utilizing the National In-patient Sample (NIS) database to identify hospitalizations of patients with GPA or MPA associated with ARF from 2016 to 2021. The outcomes included in-hospital mortality, requirement of invasive procedures, and hospital length of stay. Univariable and multivariable analysis were used to identify prognostic factors associated with in-hospital mortality.

resultsWe identified 21,430 weighted (4,283 unweighted) hospitalizations with diagnosis of GPA or MPA associated with ARF in the United States from 2016 to 2021. 78.3% of those were diagnosed with GPA, 19.2% with MPA, and 2.5% with both ICD-10 codes. The mean age was 63.7 years, 53.6% were female, and 73.3% were White. The rate of hemodialysis was 21.5%, plasmapheresis 7.4%, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in 0.5% of hospitalizations. The overall in-hospital mortality was 15.4%, compared to 35.9% in the subgroup requiring invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Independent prognostic factors associated with increased in-hospital mortality were higher age, acute kidney injury (AKI), sepsis, requirement of non-invasive mechanical ventilation, interstitial lung disease (ILD), history of stroke, shock, and requirement of IMV.

conclusionGPA or MPA hospitalizations complicated with ARF were found to be associated with a high in-hospital mortality rate. At hospital-level prognostication assessment, we found that higher age, AKI, sepsis, shock, history of ILD, history of stroke, and requirement of mechanical ventilation were independently associated with increased in-hospital mortality.
