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

Background: Critically ill children and young adults with diabetic ketoacidosis are thought to be in a prothrombotic state. However, the rate of hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism and associated risk factors in this population have not been identified. Objectives: Children hospitalized for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) may be at increased risk of hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism (HA-VTE). We sought to estimate the incidence of HA-VTE and identify unique prothrombotic risk factors in this population. Methods: We performed a multicenter, retrospective cohort study using the Pediatric Health Information Systems registry including patients aged 0 to 21 years hospitalized for DKA from January 2017 to December 2023 within 48 participating centers. The primary outcome was the frequency of HA-VTE. Secondary outcomes were rates of cerebral edema, central venous catheterization (CVC), invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), infection, and length of stay (LOS). An adjusted logistic regression was employed to identify potential HA-VTE risk factors. Results: Of the 27,613 patients studied, 93 (0.3%) developed a HA-VTE. Compared with those without HA-VTE, those with HA-VTE had a greater median LOS (10 [IQR, 5-21] vs 2 [IQR, 2-3] days) and rates of cerebral edema (25.8% vs 6.6%), CVC (23.7% vs 1.1%), infection (72% vs 23.5%), and IMV (39.8% vs 1.4%; all Conclusion: The frequency of HA-VTE among critically ill children and young adults hospitalized for DKA was 0.3%. After prospective validation, putative risk factors (ie, CVC, IMV, infection, and extended LOS) may be incorporated into the design of forthcoming pediatric thromboprophylaxis trials.
