Incidence of and risk factors for persistent gram-positive bacteraemia and catheter-related thrombosis in haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Article in Bone marrow transplantation, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A cohort of 439 haematopoietic SCT recipients was analysed to determine the incidence of Gram-positive coccal bacteraemia and thromboembolic events associated with the use of central venous catheters (CVCs) and to determine risk factors for these complications. The incidences of persistent coagulase-negative staphylococcal (CoNS) bacteraemia, symptomatic thrombosis and thrombophlebitis were 25%, 9.6% and 6.6%, respectively. Duration of neutropenia (in days, odds ratio (OR) 1.02; P=0.04) and left-sided placement of the CVCs (OR 1.73; P=0.03) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of persistent CoNS bacteraemia, whereas the use of less mucotoxic conditioning regimens was associated with a lower risk (high-dose melphalan (HDM)/BEAM vs other regimens, OR 0.24; P<0.001). Use of TBI, persistent CoNS bacteraemia and tip colonisation were all significantly associated with an increased risk of symptomatic thrombosis (OR 6.03, 3.36 and 2.80, respectively; P0.02). The risk factors found in this cohort of SCT recipients differed from those found in the general cancer population, showing an important role for persisting bacteraemia in the pathogenesis of CVC-associated thrombosis. Therefore, we constructed a new algorithm in order to improve catheter management and prevent these CVC-related complications.
