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

backgroundThe stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) reflects patients' acute hyperglycemia status, and the time in range (TIR) captures glucose control dynamics during their intensive care unit (ICU) stays.

aimTo investigate the independent and combined associations of SHR and TIR with 28-day mortality among surgical ICU patients.

methodsIn total, 706 adult patients with available glucose data were included. SHR was calculated as the ratio of admission glucose levels to glycosylated hemoglobin-derived estimated average glucose. TIR was calculated as percentages of glucose readings within the 3.9-10.0 mmol/L range during the ICU stay. SHR and TIR were divided into quartiles, and patients were allocated to four groups according to combinations of high/low values. The associations of the SHR, TIR, and both combined with mortality were assessed using logistic regression.

resultsLogistic regression analysis demonstrated that patients in the highest SHR quartile had a significantly increased risk of 28-day mortality compared with the reference quartile [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 2.24; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06-4.71;

conclusionCombined SHR and TIR assessment offers prognostic value in surgical ICU patients. Maintaining glucose within the target range may be important to improve short-term outcomes in patients with stress hyperglycemia.
