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

The delta neutrophil index (DNI), which reflects the ratio of circulating immature neutrophils, has been reported to be highly predictive of mortality in systemic inflammation. We investigated the prognostic significance of DNI value for early mortality and neurologic outcomes after pediatric cardiac arrest (CA). We retrospectively analyzed the data of eligible patients (<19 years in age). Among 85 patients, 55 subjects (64.7%) survived and 36 (42.4%) showed good outcomes at 30 days after CA. Cox regression analysis revealed that the DNI values immediately after the return of spontaneous circulation, at 24 hours and 48 hours after CA, were related to an increased risk for death within 30 days after CA (P < 0.001). A DNI value of higher than 3.3% at 24 hours could significantly predict both 30-day mortality (hazard ratio: 11.8; P < 0.001) and neurologic outcomes (odds ratio: 8.04; P = 0.003). The C statistic for multivariable prediction models for 30-day mortality (incorporating DNI at 24 hours, compression time, and serum sodium level) was 0.799, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of DNI at 24 hours for poor neurologic outcome was 0.871. Higher DNI was independently associated with 30-day mortality and poor neurologic outcomes after pediatric CA.
