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: We aimed to elucidate the prognostic impact of in-hospital emergencies among patients who require non-surgical intensive care. Methods and Results: In total, 4,483 patients requiring non-surgical intensive care from 2011 to 2021 were included. Patient backgrounds, in-hospital management, and prognoses were compared among 4 groups according to the hospitalization route: walk-ins (group A; n=636); ambulance (group B; n=2,748); helicopter/car-based emergency medical service (group C; n=565); and in-hospital emergencies (group D; n=534). The proportion of patients admitted to the intensive care unit after in-hospital emergencies was 38.0% among those with sepsis and 29.7% among those with other non-cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, acute heart failure (AHF), sepsis and other non-cardiovascular disease were the most common diseases in patients with in-hospital emergencies (24.3%, 23.2% and 21.5%, respectively). Kaplan-Meier curve analysis revealed that the prognosis (365-day all-cause mortality) was significantly poorer in group D than in the other groups. A multivariable Cox regression model identified group D as an independent predictor of 365-day all-cause mortality (hazard ratio 1.227; 95% confidence interval 1.027-1.467) relative to out-of-hospital admissions, especially in AHF and non-cardiovascular disease. Conclusions: Patients who required non-surgical intensive care after in-hospital emergencies mainly have AHF and non-cardiovascular etiologies such as sepsis. In-hospital emergency was identified as a significant factor associated with a higher 365-day mortality rate. A clinical approach to reduce their mortality is urgently needed.
