Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation and In-Hospital Mortality Following Open-Heart Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Cardiology research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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: Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) after open-heart surgery is associated with adverse postoperative outcomes, but evidence regarding its association with mortality in Indonesia remains limited. This study evaluated the association between PMV and in-hospital mortality and identified factors associated with PMV. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted among adults undergoing open-heart surgery at Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia, between 2023 and 2024. PMV was defined using two thresholds (> 24 h and ≥ 96 h). Factors associated with mortality were evaluated using univariable and multivariable logistic regression. Results: A total of 249 patients were included, with an in-hospital mortality rate of 18.9%. PMV occurred in 62.2% (> 24 h) and 5.6% (≥ 96 h) of patients. In multivariable analysis, PMV > 24 h (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 3.259, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.438-7.386; P = 0.005) and longer operative duration (aOR 1.009, 95% CI 1.004-1.015; P = 0.001) were associated with in-hospital mortality after adjustment. Using the ≥ 96-h definition, PMV (aOR 15.422, 95% CI 4.112-57.844; P < 0.001), operative duration (aOR 1.009, 95% CI 1.003-1.014; P = 0.002), and age (aOR 1.037, 95% CI 1.000-1.075; P = 0.049) remained associated with in-hospital mortality after adjustment. No statistically significant factors associated with PMV were identified. Conclusions: PMV was associated with increased in-hospital mortality following open-heart surgery, with a stronger association for ventilation ≥ 96 h. Longer operative duration also predicted mortality, highlighting the importance of perioperative risk stratification and optimized postoperative ventilatory management.
