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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate clinical characters and prognosis of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and severe pneumonia admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). MATERIALS AND

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study that reviewed all clinical records of patients with SLE and severe pneumonia admitted to the ICU between 2008 and 2020.

resultsA total of 86 SLE patients with severe pneumonia during their first ICU admission were enrolled in this study. Most patients were female (n = 71, 82.5%), and the median age was 42.3 ± 14.7 years. The most common organisms were gram-positive bacteria (20.9%), followed by gram-negative bacteria (18.6%) and fungi (10.4%). A total of 31 patients died within 30 days of ICU admission, and the 30-day mortality was 36%. In binary logistic regression analysis, Acute Physiologic and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score and mechanical ventilation were dependently associated with 30-day mortality (odds ratio [OR] 2.97, P = 0.016; OR = 4.02, P = 0.023; OR = 1.52, P = 0.036; respectively). Among the other 55 patients, 5 patients died after discharge from the ICU during the long-term follow-up.

conclusionsMortality was high in SLE patients with severe pneumonia admitted to the ICU, and most of the patients died within 30 days of ICU admission.
