Construction of a nomogram for early diagnosis of refractory
Article in Translational pediatrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Refractory Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 369 children with Results: The fever peak and duration of the children in the RMPP group (n=86) were higher and longer compared with those in the GMPP group (n=283) (P<0.05). There was a significant difference in the incidence of lobar pneumonia and pleural effusion in pulmonary imaging between the two groups (P<0.05). Laboratory tests showed that the children with RMPP had lower serum uric acid (SUA) and albumin (ALB) as compared with the GMPP group (P<0.05). White blood cells (WBCs), neutrophil count (NEP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were higher in the RMPP group (P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the fever duration, pleural effusion, WBC, NEP, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), CRP, NLR, and SUA levels were independent predictors of RMPP (P<0.05). The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve results showed fever duration, WBC, NEP, CRP, LDH, SUA, and NLR had good predictive value. The areas under the curve (AUCs) were 0.861, 0.730, 0.758, 0.837, 0.868, 0.744, and 0.713 and the best cutoff values were 10.50, 10.13, 6.43, 29.45, 370.50, 170.50, and 3.47, respectively. Finally, fever duration of more than 10.5 days, pleural effusion, WBC >10.13×10 Conclusions: The simple and easy-to-use nomogram can help clinicians, especially primary doctors, to make early diagnoses of RMPP.
