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

objectiveTo investigate the correlation of the serum vitamin A, D, and E (VA, VD, and VE) levels with the occurrence and development of recurrent respiratory tract infections (RRTIs).

methodsA total of 129 children with respiratory tract infections (RTIs) treated in our hospital from January 2018 to February 2020 (the RTIs group) and 50 healthy children undergoing physical examinations (the control group) in our hospital were recruited as the study cohort. The serum VA, VD, and VE levels were measured upon admission (the active phase) and at two weeks after discharge (the stable phase). The serum VA, VD, and VE levels in the children with RRTIs were compared with the levels in the control group, and the correlation between these three vitamins and the occurrence and development of RRTIs was analyzed.

resultsThe RRTIs group and the RTIs group witnessed markedly lower serum VA, VD, VE, and humoral immunity index levels, including IgG, IgA, and IgM, compared to the control group, with an apparent lower outcome in the RRTIs group than in the RTIs group. The serum levels of the above indexes in the RRTIs children were reduced in the active phase compared with the stable phase. A Pearson correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between VA and IgA. A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that a low BMI (Body mass index), prematurity, VA deficiency, VD deficiency, and VE deficiency were the risk factors for RRTIs in children, and outdoor activity was the protective factor.

conclusionThe VA, VD, and VE levels are closely related to RRTIs in children. It is important to determine and supplement the VA, VD, and VE levels to prevent RTIs in children.
