Predictors of Infection in Children with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Single Center Study in Indonesia.
Article in Global pediatric health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) are susceptible to infection due to defects in their immune system. Corticosteroids and immunosuppressant drugs used as SLE therapy also contribute to infection. This study aimed is to determine predictors of infection in pediatric patients with SLE. This retrospective cohort study was conducted at Dr. Sardjito Hospital, a referral hospital in Yogyakarta, Indonesia between 2013 and 2019. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictor variables for the occurrence of infection. A total of 109 SLE patients were included in this study. The incidence of infection in children with SLE was 27.5%. The most common types of infection in hospitalized SLE patients were urinary tract infections (41%), skin and soft tissue infections (20.5%), and pneumonia (20.5%). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the use of methylprednisolone pulse dose (RR 3.204; 95% CI 1.234-8.318) was a predictor of infection. Clinician should closely observe SLE patients with predictors for infection.
