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: In December 2019, many cases of COVID-19 were reported in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China. In the following 3 months, the disease out broke in China. Preisolation measures was used to screen out COVID-19 patients in the pediatric respiratory ward of our hospital. Aims: To investigate the new measures for screening COVID-19 patients and to analyze the clinical features of children with suspicious COVID-19. Methods: A total of 50 preisolated children with suspicious COVID-19 who were admitted to our hospital in Mianyang, China, between January 28 and March 5, 2020, were included. Patients presented with fever and cough or fever accompanied by vomiting and diarrhea. A detailed epidemiological history screening was performed. A real-time reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect SARS-COV-2 nucleic acid. Low-dose chest computed tomography (CT) was applied when pneumonia was suspicious. Routine blood tests were performed to rule out COVID-19. Patients' data were collected, and the basic clinical features, epidemiological history, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examination results, and outcomes were analyzed and summarized. Results: No definite cases were detected, while two patients were suspected of having COVID-19. The pathogenic results of the 50 patients mainly included Conclusions: Preisolation measures combined with pathogen screening can minimize the risk of hospital-acquired infections by preventing patients with suspicious COVID-19 from contacting other patients before they are explicitly excluded. Clinical analysis of the patients was helpful for clinical nursing management.
