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 assess the clinical characteristics of 168 children with adenovirus pneumonia complicated by pulmonary consolidation and atelectasis.

methodsWe retrospectively studied patients with adenovirus pneumonia complicated by pulmonary consolidation and atelectasis admitted to Xiamen Children's Hospital from March 2019 to August 2019. In total, 168 patients were recruited and divided into a severe group and non-severe group according to disease severity. Clinical results were assessed.

resultsAll children had fever and cough, 29 had wheezing, and 82 had dyspnea. Pleural effusion was found in 53 patients. Mixed infections were present in 95 patients. A total of 105 patients received hormone therapy, 72 received intravenous gamma globulin, and 103 underwent bronchoscopy, among whom 6 were found to have bronchial casts. Of the 168 children, 166 were cured and two died. The patients were divided by disease severity, with 82 in the severe group and 86 in the non-severe group. The two groups showed significant differences in the fever course, pleural effusion, mixed infections, hemoglobin concentration, procalcitonin concentration, and lactate dehydrogenase concentration.

conclusionA long fever course, mixed infection, pleural effusion, decreased hemoglobin concentration, and increased procalcitonin and lactate dehydrogenase concentrations may be associated with more severe adenovirus pneumonia.
