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: There is no predictive tool developed for pneumonia-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) specifically so far, and the clinical risk classification of these patients is not well defined. Our study aims to construct an early prediction model for hospital mortality in patients with pneumonia-associated ARDS. Methods: In this single-center retrospective study, consecutive patients with pneumonia-associated ARDS admitted into intensive care units (ICUs) in West China Hospital of Sichuan University in China between January 2012 and December 2018 were enrolled. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and then multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to identify independent predictors which were used to develop a nomogram. We evaluated the performance of differentiation, calibration, and clinical utility of the nomogram. Results: The included patients were divided into the training cohort (442 patients) and the testing cohort (190 patients) with comparable baseline characteristics. The independent predictors for hospital mortality included age (OR: 1.04; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.05), chronic cardiovascular diseases (OR: 2.62; 95% CI: 1.54, 4.45), chronic respiratory diseases (OR: 1.87; 95% CI: 1.02, 3.43), lymphocytes (OR: 0.56; 95% CI: 0.39, 0.81), albumin (OR: 0.94; 95% CI: 0.90, 1.00), creatinine (OR: 1.00; 95% CI: 1.00, 1.01), D-dimer (OR: 1.06; 95% CI: 1.03, 1.09) and procalcitonin (OR: 1.14; 95% CI: 1.07, 1.22). A web-based dynamic nomogram (https://h1234.shinyapps.io/dynnomapp/) was constructed based on these factors. The concordance index (C index) of the nomogram was 0.798 (95% CI: 0.756, 0.840) in the training cohort and 0.808 (95% CI: 0.747, 0.870) in testing cohort. The precision-recall (PR) curves, calibration curves, decision curve analyses (DCA) and clinical impact curves showed that the nomogram has good predictive value and clinical utility. Conclusion: We developed and evaluated a convenient nomogram consisting of 8 clinical characteristics for predicting mortality in patients with pneumonia-associated ARDS.
