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: Variability in the provision of bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (BCPR) may influence neurological outcomes in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) according to regional socioeconomic factors. We aimed to investigate the association between BCPR and neurological outcomes of OHCA and whether these associations differ across regions with different levels of deprivation. Methods: Using data collected from the Korean National OHCA Registry between 2013 and 2023, adults (≥18 years of age) with OHCA of presumed cardiac origin were identified. The main exposure variable was BCPR and the regional deprivation index. The primary outcome was a favourable neurological outcome, defined as a Cerebral Performance Category score of 1 or 2. Multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate the associations between BCPR and favourable neurological outcomes and to assess the interaction between BCPR and regional deprivation index. Results: Of 184,727 individuals who experienced OHCA, 112,728 (61.0%) received BCPR. There were differences in the rate of BCPR according to regional deprivation group: high, 57.9%; moderate, 59.9%; and low, 62.6%. In total, 10,669 (5.8%) patients experienced favourable neurological outcomes. Multivariable models revealed different associations between BCPR and favourable neurological outcomes according to regional deprivation level: high, adjusted odds ratio (OR) 1.56 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.23-1.99); moderate, 1.31 (95% CI 1.19-1.44); and low, 1.34 (95% CI 1.23-1.45). The magnitude of the association showed a significant interaction ( Conclusions: Although high-deprivation regions had lower BCPR rates, the association between BCPR and favourable neurological outcomes was stronger in high-deprivation regions than in moderate- and low-deprivation regions. Multifaceted interventions are needed to increase BCPR rates in highly deprived regions.
