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 Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is one of the most common renal ailments in the pediatric population. The management of NS with major infections remains a challenge to pediatricians and pediatric nephrologists, as it is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. In this study, we aimed to know the clinical spectrum and occurrence of major infections in hospitalized children with NS. Methods This prospective, observational study was conducted over a period of two years among hospitalized NS children from one year to 18 years. The clinical spectrum and hospital course were studied in detail, and the data generated were analyzed to obtain valid results. Results A total of 101 hospitalizations of 66 children were assessed for the occurrence of infective complications. The incidence rate of infective complications among the hospitalized nephrotics was 29.7%. Urinary tract infection (UTI) was the commonest infective complication, followed by spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP). Other infective complications observed were pneumonia, enteric fever, methicillin-resistant
