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

backgroundInfection is the predominant contributor to morbidity and mortality in burn patients, and burn wound infection (BWI) is the most common reason. The objective of this research was to analyze the incidence, factors and progression of BWI, in terms of events and bacteria.

methodsClinical variables of all qualified patients admitted to burn wards were analyzed retrospectively in 2021 at a tertiary hospital in eastern China through univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression. The Kaplan-Meier method was also used for plotting survival curves. Isolates and resistance data were evaluated to demonstrate the evolution of targeted antibiotics of strains from BWI.

resultsA total of 580 (median age, 39.5 years (23-56 years); 372/580 (64.14%) male) patients were evaluated, 348 (60.0%) of whom experienced BWI. A variety of factors are associated with BWI. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that depth and area of burn and duration from burn to first hospitalization are independent risk factors for BWI. For BWI onset in these patients, 47.24% (274/580) occurred in the first week. The most frequently isolated causative organism was

conclusionThe precise assessment of factors affecting BWI in burn patients enhances prompt and suitable management. Swab cultures for surveillance could be utilized to monitor the microbiological status of burn patients.
