Epidemiological characteristics of bloodstream infections in patients with different degrees of liver disease.
Observational study in Infection, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Observational retrospective study to evaluate the etiology, the outcome and the risk factors of bloodstream infections (BSIs) in patients with liver disease. One hundred and forty-eight BSIs were diagnosed (infection rate: 0.60 per 100 days of hospital stay), 62 BSIs (41.9 %) were associated with Gram-positive bacteria (infection rate: 0.25 per 100 days of hospital stay) and 80 (54.4 %) with Gram-negative bacteria (infection rate: 0.32 per 100 days of hospital stay). Admission-associated mortality was higher in patients with BSI than in those without BSI (20.6 versus 5.0 %, p < 0.001). Patients with cirrhosis had an increased risk to develop a BSI compared with patients with chronic hepatitis, specifically for Gram-positive (and Staphylococcus spp)-related BSI.
