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

objectiveTo evaluate associations between neighborhood income and burden of hospitalizations for children with short bowel syndrome (SBS). STUDY

designWe used the Pediatric Health Information System (PHIS) database to evaluate associations between neighborhood income and hospital readmissions, readmissions for central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI), and hospital length of stay (LOS) for patients <18 years with SBS hospitalized between January 1, 2006, and October 1, 2015. We analyzed readmissions with recurrent event analysis and analyzed LOS with linear mixed effects modeling. We used a conceptual model to guide our multivariable analyses, adjusting for race, ethnicity, and insurance status.

resultsWe included 4289 children with 16 347 hospitalizations from 43 institutions. Fifty-seven percent of the children were male, 21% were Black, 19% were Hispanic, and 67% had public insurance. In univariable analysis, children from low-income neighborhoods had a 38% increased risk for all-cause hospitalizations (rate ratio [RR] 1.38, 95% CI 1.10-1.72, P = .01), an 83% increased risk for CLABSI hospitalizations (RR 1.83, 95% CI 1.37-2.44, P < .001), and increased hospital LOS (β 0.15, 95% CI 0.01-0.29, P = .04). In multivariable analysis, the association between low-income neighborhoods and elevated risk for CLABSI hospitalizations persisted (RR 1.70, 95% CI 1.23-2.35, P < .01, respectively).

conclusionsChildren with SBS from low-income neighborhoods are at increased risk for hospitalizations due to CLABSI. Examination of specific household- and neighborhood-level factors contributing to this disparity may inform equity-based interventions.
