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: Widely accepted in-hospital termination-of-resuscitation (TOR) rules are currently lacking, and existing approaches do not incorporate real-time physiological monitoring. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO Methods: In this prospective observational study, adult patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who underwent resuscitation with cerebral oximetry monitoring in the emergency department were enrolled. The primary objective was to identify low rSO Results: Of 408 screened patients, 145 were included and 59 (40.9%) achieved ROSC. No patient achieved ROSC when cumulative peak rSO Conclusion: Low cumulative peak rSO
