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

Background: Bloodstream infection (BSI) is a serious medical issue causing non-relapsed mortality in patients receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (HSCT). Methods: The characteristics of all patients receiving HSCT (autologous and allogeneic HSCT) in our hospital from 2013 to 2019 were studied. Ratios, medians, and ranges were calculated to describe categorical variables. Chi-square tests were performed to compare the difference between ratios. Results: A total of 741 patients receiving 746 HSCT procedures-including 376 allogeneic, 370 autologous, and four of both types-were included in the study. The overall incidence of BSI in post-transplantation patients was 8.8% (N = 65). Gram-negative bacteria were the most common strains each year (33.3-81.3%), and Conclusion: Our results reveal the changing epidemiology of BSI and antibiotic resistance in patients receiving HSCT in Southwest China, as well as showing that MDR and tigecycline-resistant microorganisms should be given more attention. Thus, long-term routine microorganism epidemiological and resistance monitoring in patients undergoing HSCT should be a vital practice in future.
