selenium atom — no detected effect on hospital length of stay
Evidence strength: moderate.FindingNull result“The median (interquartile range) ICU and hospital lengths of stay did not differ between the placebo and selenium groups (18 (10–31) days versus 21 (7–40) days, respectively, for the ICU length of stay; P = 0.836; and 33 (11–51) days versus 25 (7–68) days, respectively, for the hospital length of stay; P = 0.704).”
