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

introductionThe errors in the pre-analytic phase are at the origin of 60 to 85% of the errors in the results proceeded from laboratory.

aimTo evaluate the impact of the pre-analytical phase on the received bacteriology samples received at the medical bacteriology laboratory of Ibn Sina UH in Rabat Morocco in order to propose corrective actions.

methodsA descriptive and quantitative study of the non-conformities of the pre-analytical phase identified in the central laboratory of medical bacteriology of the Ibn Sina hospital in Rabat over a period of 6 months (from January 01 to July 01, 2020). It concerned samples from various clinical services and care units of Ibn Sina Hospital, as well as external samples. In order to act on these various dysfunctions, we used quality tools such as the Pareto chart and from Ishikawa.

resultsWe counted 424 cases of pre-analytical NC on 14468 samples received to the Central Laboratory of Bacteriology or 2.93%. These are mainly errors of sample identification and patient identity (59.66%), quality and quantity of samples (25.02%) and problem of conditions of transport and packaging (15.32%).

conclusionIts mastery requires firstly, a close collaboration between the various services, prescribers, samplers and biologists and secondly the respect of each stage of this phase by the hospital staff.
