Comparison of Effects of Postextubation Noninvasive Ventilation with Passive Humidification and High-flow Nasal Cannula in Patients with High Risk of Extubation Failure: A Randomized Comparative Study.
Article in Indian journal of critical care medicine : peer-reviewed, official publication of Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Background and aims: Weaning patients with a high risk of extubation failure off the ventilator can be challenging and associated with complications. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) have been used after extubation in various settings. This study suggests the better modality between HFNC and NIV to prevent reintubation in these patients. Patients and methods: A single-centered, prospective, randomized comparative study was conducted in the adult medical intensive care unit (ICU) of our center. A total of 150 critically ill patients with a high risk of extubation failure were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either HFNC or NIV immediately after extubation for 48 hours. The rate of reintubation within 48 hours of extubation was compared between the groups. Results: The rate of reintubation within 48 hours was lower in the HFNC group than the NIV group ( Conclusion: High-flow nasal cannula performed better than NIV in preventing reintubation at 48 hours in patients with a high risk of extubation failure.
