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

purposeTo explore the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of bloodstream infections (BSI) in patients who develop agranulocytosis fever after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). This study also provides a basis for the clinical treatment of BSI.

methodsA retrospective analysis of 397 allo-HSCT patients in the Department of Hematology of our hospital was conducted from January 2013 to December 2017 to analyze the incidence of BSI, the distribution and types of pathogenic bacteria, and drug resistance rates. We also determined whether various parameters are risk factors to BSI, including the patient age, gender, disease type, transplantation method, stem cell source, pre-treatment with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), and agranulocytosis time.

resultsAmong the 397 allo-HSCT patients, 294 had a fever during the period of agranulocytosis, and 52 cases were found to have BSI. The incidence of BSI in patients with agranulocytosis fever was 17.7% (52/294). Among the 60 pathogens detected, 43 (71.67%), 10 (16.67%), and 7 (11.67%) were Gram negative strains, Gram positive strains, and fungi, respectively. The most common bacteria were

conclusionWe found that in our hospital, BSIs in allo-HSCT patients are mainly caused by Gram-negative bacteria, and the resistance rate to carbapenem drugs is high. Pre-treatment with ATG, agranulocytosis time (≥21 days), and stem cell source are risk factors for BSI.
