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

objectivesTo explore the value of metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the pathogen identification in children with hematological malignancies complicated with infections.

methodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data and pathogenic test results of 43 children with hematological malignancies who underwent microbial culture and mNGS due to infections in the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between June 2020 and July 2022. Differences in detection rates and characteristics of pathogenic microorganisms detected by mNGS and microbial culture were compared.

resultsA total of 54 specimens were examined, and the overall detection rate of pathogen by mNGS (80%, 43/54) was significantly higher than that by microbial culture (30%, 16/54) (

conclusionsmNGS has a higher detection rate than microbial culture and has obvious advantages in diagnosing mixed and fungal infections, making it a useful supplementary diagnostic method to microbial culture.
