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

Objective: To establish a predictive modeling for the risk of bloodstream infection associated with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC). Methods: Patients receiving PICC treatment in Shenzhen People's Hospital from June 2020 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled and divided into the infection group and the non-infection group according to the presence and absence of PICC-related infections. Then, relevant clinical information of patients was collected and the predictors of PICC-related infection were screened by the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LASSO) model. Besides, multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PICC-related infection, A nomogram was constructed based on the results of the multivariate analysis. Ultimately, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to analyze the application value of influencing factors to predict PICC-related infections. Results: A total of 505 patients were included, including 75 patients with PICC-related infections (14.85%). The main pathogen was gram-positive cocci. The predictors screened by LASSO included age >60 years, catheter movement, catheter maintenance cycle, insertion technique, immune function, complications, and body temperature ≥37.2 °C before PICC placement. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that independent risk factors of infections related to PICC included age >60 years [odds ratio (OR) = 1.722; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.312-3.579; Conclusion: PICC-related infections are associated with factors such as age >60 years, catheter movement, catheter maintenance cycle, insertion technique, immune function, complications, and body temperature ≥37.2 °C before PICC placement. Additionally, the LASSO model is moderately predictive for predicting the occurrence of PICC-related infections.
