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

Neonatal Escherichia coli (E. coli) sepsis is increasing. There is limited data on the factors contributing to increased mortality and severity of illness in neonatal E. coli sepsis. A retrospective review of neonates (<30 days) admitted to a Level IV NICU in the United States from 2008 to 2022 diagnosed with E. coli bloodstream or cerebrospinal fluid infection was conducted. Primary outcome was defined as mortality from or severe illness during E. coli infection (defined as a need for inotropic support or metabolic acidosis). E. coli neonatal sepsis rate increased from 2008 to 2022 (average of 1.12 per 1000 live births). The primary outcome, which occurred in 57.4% of cases, was independently associated with prematurity, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia. Ampicillin resistance was not associated with the primary outcome. GA, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia but not ampicillin resistance, are associated with mortality or severe illness from E. coli sepsis.
