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

Purpose: Patients and Methods: Demographic information and management strategies were retrospectively collected from the records of all adult patients who visited the emergency department between January 1, 2021, and December 31, 2021, with culture-positive Results: Data from 867 patients (57.8% men) with a mean age of 66.9 were compiled. The 30-day mortality rate of the enrolled patients was 13.4%, and the area under the curve (AUC) of the scoring systems were as follows: SOFA, 0.91 (95% confidence interval [CI]=0.89-0.93), qPitt, 0.87 (95% CI=0.84-0.89), PBS, 0.87 (95% CI=0.85-0.89), and qSOFA, 0.73 (95% CI=0.70-0.76). The AUC of qPitt was significantly higher than that of qSOFA ( Conclusion: The qPitt revealed excellent 30-day mortality prediction ability and also predicted mortality in non-bacteremic patients with
