Identifying Risk Factors and Improving Preventive Strategies for Febrile Neutropenia in Children with Leukemia Receiving Ciprofloxacin Prophylaxis

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
The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors and improve preventive strategies for febrile neutropenia (FEN) in children with leukemia who were receiving ciprofloxacin prophylaxis. The study included 100 children with leukemia [n=80 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and n=20 with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML)]. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether they had three or fewer FEN episodes (Group 1) or more than three FEN episodes (Group 2). Group 1 contained 63 (63%) of the 100 patients, while Group 2 contained 37 (37%). Older age (≥7 years), leukemia type, prolonged neutropenia (>10 days), and the presence of neutropenia and hypogammaglobulinemia at diagnosis were all risk factors for having more than three FEN episodes. Our findings suggest that, in addition to ciprofloxacin prophylaxis, identifying risk factors and improving preventive strategies could help reduce FEN episodes in children with leukemia.
