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: Aspiration pneumonia (AP) is difficult to diagnose and has poor outcomes. This case-control study aimed to explore the risk factors and delineate the antibiotic usage for AP. Methods: Inpatients diagnosed with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) from 2013 to 2017, enrolled in the urban employee basic medical insurance program in Beijing, were included and classified into the AP ( Results: Older age (compared to 18-64 years, OR for 65-79 years: 4.3, 95% CI: 3.8-4.9; OR for >80 years: 6.3, 95% CI: 5.6-7.2), male (OR: 1.4, 95% CI: 1.3-1.5), cerebrovascular disease (OR: 3.1, 95% CI: 2.8-3.5), dementia (OR: 2.0, 95% CI: 1.8-2.1), vomiting (OR: 1.4, 95% CI: 1.2-1.7), Parkinson's disease (OR: 2.1, 95% CI: 1.8-2.4), and epilepsy (OR: 3.2, 95% CI: 2.8-3.7) were associated with an increased risk of AP. 92.8% of the AP patients received antibiotic therapy. Among them, patients treated with broad-spectrum antibiotics, antibiotics for injection, and combined antibiotics accounted for 93.3%, 97.9%, and 81.7%, respectively. Conclusions: Older age, male, and several comorbidities were independent risk factors for AP, and combined antibiotics treatments are common, which merits attention in accurate detection of AP in a high-risk population.
