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

backgroundPatients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are vulnerable to community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), which have a high mortality rate. We aimed to investigate the value of heparin-binding protein (HBP) as a prognostic marker of mortality in patients with DM and CAP.

methodsThis retrospective study included CAP patients who were tested for HBP at intensive care unit (ICU) admission from January 2019 to April 2020. Patients were allocated to the DM or non-DM group and paired with propensity score matching. Baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes up to 90 days were evaluated. The primary outcome was the 10-day mortality. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, Kaplan-Meier analysis, and Cox regression were used for statistical analysis.

resultsAmong 152 enrolled patients, 60 pairs were successfully matched. There was no significant difference in 10-day mortality, while more patients in the DM group died within 28 d (

conclusionPlasma HBP at ICU admission was associated with the 10-day, 28-day, and 90-day mortality, and might be a prognostic factor in patients with DM and CAP.
