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: Postoperative pneumonia (POP) is a common complication after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) associated with increased mortality rates, prolonged hospitalization, and high medical costs. It is currently understood that identifying pneumonia early and implementing aggressive treatment can significantly improve patients' outcomes. The primary objective of this study was to explore risk factors and develop a logistic regression model that assesses the risks of POP. Methods: An internal cohort of 613 inpatients with aSAH who underwent surgery at the Neurosurgical Department of First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University was retrospectively analyzed to develop a nomogram for predicting POP. We assessed the discriminative power, accuracy, and clinical validity of the predictions by using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), the calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA). The final model was validated using an external validation set of 97 samples from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Results: Among patients in our internal cohort, 15.66% ( Conclusion: We found that GCS, MVT, albumin, CRP, smoking, and DCI are independent predictors for the development of POP in patients with aSAH. Overall, our nomogram represents a reliable and convenient approach to predict POP in the patient population.
