Development and validation of nomogram for predicting the risk of transferring to the ICU for children with influenza.

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
objectiveDevelopment of a nomogram model for predicting the magnitude of risk of transferring hospitalized children with influenza to the ICU.
methodsIn a single-center retrospective study, 318 children with influenza who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2018 to August 2023 were collected as study subjects. Children with influenza were randomly assigned to the training set and validation set in a ratio of 4:1. In the training set, risk factors were identified using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, and a nomogram model was created on this basis. The validation set was used to evaluate the predictive power of the model.
resultsMultifactorial logistic regression analysis revealed six independent risk factors for transfer to the ICU in hospitalized children with influenza, including elevated peripheral white blood cell counts, elevated large platelet ratios, reduced mean platelet width, reduced complement C3, elevated serum globulin levels, and reduced total immunoglobulin M levels. Using these six metrics as predictors to construct a nomogram graphical model, the C-index was 0.970 (95% Cl: 0.953-0.988). The areas under the curve for the training and validation sets were 0.966 (95%Cl 0.947-0.985) and 0.919 (95%Cl 0.851-0.986), respectively.
conclusionA nomogram for predicting the risk of transferring to the ICU for children with influenza was developed and validated, which demonstrates good calibration and clinical benefits.
