A Decrease in Hb and Hypoproteinemia: Possible Predictors of Complications in Neonates with Late-Onset Sepsis in a Developing Country.

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
Objective: The main purpose of our study was to determine the predictors of complications in neonates with late-onset sepsis (LOS). Materials and methods: This was a retrospective cohort study conducted in a neonatal intensive care unit between June 2016 and February 2020. Neonates with LOS were enrolled in this study. According to whether complications were merged after LOS, neonates were divided into a complicated group and a noncomplicated group. The demographic data, perinatal conditions, blood cell count analysis, blood cultures, hypoproteinemia within 1 week after the onset of sepsis and treatment measures were compared between the groups. Results: A total of 87 neonates with LOS were enrolled in this study. Significant differences were observed between the complicated and noncomplicated groups with regard to hemoglobin (Hb), a decrease in Hb, hypoproteinemia and red blood cell transfusions (P < 0.05). Further comparison found that neonates with LOS who had moderate or severe anemia at the time of sepsis onset were more likely to have complications than those with mild or no anemia. The results of binomial stepwise logistic regression suggested that a decrease in Hb (OR=0.045, P=0.025 < 0.05) and hypoproteinemia (OR=0.266, P=0.007 < 0.05) were independent predictors of complications in neonates with LOS. A receiver operating characteristic analysis showed that the area under the curve was 0.807 for a decrease in Hb. Conclusion: A decrease in Hb and hypoproteinemia were independent predictors of complications and may help to predict the occurrence of complications in neonates with LOS in the early stage.
