[New predictive models of bacteremia in the emergency department: a step forward].
Review in Revista espanola de quimioterapia : publicacion oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Quimioterapia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The care of patients with a suspected infectious process in hospital emergency department (ED) has increased in the last decade to account for around 15-20% of all daily care. In the initial evaluation of these patients, samples are taken for the different microbiological studies in 45% of the cases, where obtaining blood cultures (BC) predominates, in 14.6% of all of them. The diagnostic yield of these BC is highly variable (2-20%). The most frequent suspected or confirmed foci or infectious processes of true bacteremia (TB) in the ED are urinary tract infection (45%) and respiratory infection (25%). For all these reasons, the suspicion and confirmation of TB has a relevant diagnostic and prognostic significance and requires changing some of the most important decisions to be made in the ED. Among others, indicate discharge or admission, extract BC and administer the appropriate and early antimicrobial. The intention of this review is to highlight the scientific evidence published in the last five years, clarify the current controversies and compare the ability to predict bacteremia of the latest predictive models published since 2017 with those already existing on that date, year in which a review was published that left open the proposal to continue searching for a model with adequate performance for ED. And so, based on it, generate different recommendations that help define the role that these models or scales can have in improving the indication for obtaining BC, as well as in the immediate making of other diagnostic-therapeutic decisions (administration early and appropriate antibiotic treatment, request for complementary tudies and other microbiological samples, intensity of hemodynamic support, need for admission, etc.).
