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

Secondary bacterial infections occurred in 13.9% (5 of 36) of critical ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019. All 5 patients had been admitted to intensive care unit and received mechanical ventilation before developing bacterial infection. Active surveillance of culture should be performed for critically ill patients. Prevention of nosocomial infection should to be taken seriously.
