Determination of Risk Factors for Infectious Diarrhea in Patients with Hematological Malignancy.

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.
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
backgroundThis study aimed to determine the risk factors of infectious diarrhea in patients undergoing chemotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for hematological malignancies. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a prospective, observational study. Patients in whom the infectious agent was determined by laboratory examination were considered to have infectious diarrhea. Patients with diarrhea were categorized as infectious or unidentified and compared in terms of demographic data, treatments, risk factors, laboratory findings, and prognosis.
resultsA total of 838 patients were hospitalized, among which 105 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included (12.5%). The patients were divided into two groups: 67 (63.8%) with unidentified diarrhea and 38 (36.2%) with infectious diarrhea. There were no differences between these groups in terms of age, sex, types of hematological malignancies, and presence of comorbidities. The most commonly isolated microorganism was
conclusionInfectious diarrhea lasts longer than unidentified diarrhea in patients with hematological malignancies. Although corticosteroid use is a risk factor for developing infectious diarrhea, GCSF use has a protective effect.
