Blood Stream Infections in Burns: A 14-Year Cohort Analysis.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
backgroundBlood stream infections are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in burns, and pathogen identification is important for treatment. This study aims to characterize the microbiology of these infections and the association between the infecting pathogen and the hospitalization course.
methodsWe conducted a cohort study that included records of burn patients treated at the Soroka University Medical Center between 2007-2020. Statistical analysis of demographic and clinical data was performed to explore relationships between burn characteristics and outcomes. Patients with positive blood cultures were divided into four groups: Gram-positive, Gram-negative, mixed-bacterial, and fungal.
resultsOf the 2029 burn patients hospitalized, 11.7% had positive blood cultures. The most common pathogens were Candida and Pseudomonas. We found significant differences in ICU admission, need for surgery, and mortality between the infected and non-infected groups (
conclusionsAnticipating specific pathogens which are associated with certain burn characteristics may help guide future therapy.
