1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo observe the clinical characteristics of infections in adult acute leukemia (AL)patients during chemotherapy in hospital, and identify the risk factors for infections.

methodsA retrospective study of patients with AL who underwent chemotherapy between July 2010 and Dec 2014 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University was conducted. Clinical features and risk factors for infections were analyzed.

results191 patients with AL received a total of 728 courses of chemotherapies. During these admissions, 385(52.9%) infections episodes occurred. The common infections sites were lower respiratory tract infection(36.3%,153/374), bloodstream infection(17.1%, 64/374), oral infection(13.6%,51/374), and perianal infection(13.4%, 50/374). 164 strains of pathogenic bacteria were detected. Gram- negative bacteria were recorded in 59.1% of documented pathogens, and Gram- positive bacteria were responsible for 32.9% of infections. Multivariate unconditioned logistic analysis of factors identified consistent independent risk factors for no completely remission(OR=0.142, P< 0.001), duration of neutropenia longer than 7 days(OR=12.764, P<0.001), general wards(OR=1.821, P< 0.001), and hospitalization interval longer than 10 days(OR=0.720, P=0.039).

conclusionInfections after chemotherapy for AL continues to be common. AL patients with induction chemotherapy or severe neutropenia faced an increased risk of infections by multivariate analysis. And patients with short-term stay or laminar flow wards seem to be less susceptible to infections.
