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

Introduction: Methods: This retrospective study included admitted children who were diagnosed with MPP or SPP over 5 years from January 2015 to January 2020. Children with MPP were compared to children with SPP in terms of clinical features. Results: 506 patients with MPP were compared to 311 patients with SPP in terms of clinical differences. The MPP group with a median age of 60 [29-89] months and the SPP group with a median age of 24 [10-40] months. Patients with MPP were older and had a higher occurrence of receiving antibiotics before admission, fever, dry cough, polypnea and diarrhea than patients with SPP (all Discussion: In conclusion, patients with MPP and SPP usually present with fever, cough and some nonspecific symptoms. Our study showed that age, dry cough, polypnea, LDH levels, and PCT levels were independent predictive factors associated with MPP and SPP.
