Observational study in Atencion primaria, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
aimTo determine the incidence rate, hospital admission, their mortality related factors in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) in adults in Gipuzkoa. PATIENTS AND
methodsProspective observational multicenter study of patients over 14 years-old with CAP treated by 33 primary care physicians for a year. Confirmation of the radiologist for diagnosis of pneumonia was required. The participating physicians collected the sociodemographic and clinical variables of all patients with CAP seen in the clinic during one year, and followed-up on the 2nd, 10th and 40th day. Same variables were collected from patients who had CAP in the study period and were diagnosed elsewhere.
resultsThe number of patients over 14 years old with CAP during the study was 406 for a population of 48,905 inhabitants. The incidence of CAP was 8.3 cases per 1000 inhabitants/year, and included 56% males and 44% females. The mean age was 56.2 years. The rate of hospital admission during the study period was 28.6% and was not related to comorbidity or age. The overall mortality rate was 2.7% with a mean age of 83.7 years, and was only related to age.
conclusionsThe incidence of CAP was 8.3 cases per 1000 inhabitants per year. Just over one in four CAP required hospitalization and 2.7% of patients with CAP died. Only age was related to mortality.
