Management of febrile neutropenia in immunocompetent children and youth.
Article in Paediatrics & child health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Febrile neutropenia is a common clinical presentation in children that can be associated with invasive bacterial infection (IBI). However, in otherwise healthy children and youth with fever and neutropenia, the risk for IBI is low, with most cases being caused by viral infections. Well-appearing, non-oncologic, and presumed immunocompetent children aged 6 months to 18 years experiencing a first episode of neutropenia, with no additional risk factors, typically do not require empiric antibiotics. However, a thorough assessment, including complete history and physical exam, is indicated, and a blood culture should be performed when the absolute neutrophil count is <0.5 × 10
