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

backgroundRisk factors related to mortality due to Acinetobacter baumannii (AB) bacteremia have been unveiled previously, but early clinical manifestations of AB bacteremia based on prognosis remain uncovered.

methodsThe demographic characteristics, clinical features, antibiotic susceptibility, and outcomes of 37 hospitalized children with laboratory-confirmed AB bacteremia from Suzhou, China, were collected and analyzed retrospectively.

resultsOf the 37 children with AB bacteremia included in this study, 23 were males and 14 were females, with a median age of 4.83 (0.60 to 10.15) years. Among the children, 18 died (48.65%, 18/37) and 19 survived (51.35%, 19/37). The dead group had a significantly higher incidence of respiratory failure (p = 0.008), shock (P = 0.000), MODS (p = 0.000), neutropenia (< 1.5 × 10

conclusionsAB bacteremia has a high mortality in children, especially in patients with hematological diseases and oncology. Many early indicators were associated with poor prognosis, while elevated CRP and neutropenia were the independent predictors for the 30-day mortality of children with laboratory-confirmed AB bacteremia.
