Catheter-related bloodstream infections in children with intestinal failure: a 6-year review from an intestinal rehabilitation center in China.
Article in World journal of pediatrics : WJP, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundChildren with intestinal failure (IF) have frequent catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). This study aimed to analyze the clinical presentation and laboratory parameters of CRBSIs in children with IF.
methodsThis 6-year retrospective study was conducted among IF children with CRBSIs at an intestinal rehabilitation center in China. Clinical data were collected, including data of temperature and gastrointestinal symptoms. Blood/catheter culture, fecal tests, and calculation of inflammatory index were performed, which were obtained within 1 week since CRBSI onset.
resultsFifty children with 87 CRBSIs were identified, of which there were 17 suspected and 70 confirmed cases. Seventy-two pathogens were cultured from 70 positive blood cultures: 63% were Gram-positive organisms, 23% were Gram-negative organisms, and 11% were fungal organisms. Overall, 48.6% were enteric organisms; 47.2% of bacterial pathogens were consistent between fecal and blood cultures. Moreover, 46.3% fecal routines showed abnormalities including increased white blood cells, occult blood positive and the presence of fat droplets. The consistent symptom at onset of CRBSIs was fever and gastrointestinal symptoms including increased stool output, abdominal distension, or both. C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) were elevated, i.e., 16.5 mg/L [interquartile range (IQR) 8.7-44.7] and 0.48 ng/mL (IQR 0.2-1.76), respectively.
conclusionsIF children had a high rate of CRBSIs, of which larger proportions were due to Gram-positive and enteric organisms. Fever and/or gastrointestinal symptoms, combined with elevated CRP and PCT, is conducive to the early diagnosis of CRBSIs in IF patients.
