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 aim of this study was to explore the value of applying different sampling methods combined with metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) to detect pathogens in children with severe pneumonia on mechanical ventilation. Methods: Forty children with severe pneumonia on mechanical ventilation were selected, and routine endotracheal suctioning and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) sampling methods were performed. The diagnostic efficacy of different sampling methods combined with mNGS versus traditional etiological pathogen detection strategies was compared. Results: The positive rate of mNGS pathogen detection after routine endotracheal suctioning and BALF sampling was higher than that of traditional etiological detection strategies (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the positive rates of pathogen detection by routine endotracheal suctioning + mNGS and BALF + mNGS (P > 0.05). Conclusion: Compared with traditional etiological detection strategies, mNGS is more efficient for diagnosing pathogens. In clinical practice, an appropriate sampling method should be selected for mNGS-based detection according to the condition of the patient. These findings could be of great importance in the diagnosis and treatment of severe pneumonia.
