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

Purpose: Gram-negative bloodstream infection (GNBI) poses a serious threat to critically ill patients. This retrospective study aimed to uncover drug resistance of pathogens and the GNBI effect on in-hospital death and distinguish death risk factors in a medical intensive care unit (ICU). Patients and Methods: A retrospective study of all GNBI patients in the medical ICU of the Third Xiangya Hospital over 9 nine years was conducted. Blood samples were performed by a BACTEC 9240 system, MALDI-TOF MS, Bruker and Vitek-2 system. Logistic regression was used for analyzing risk factors for death. Results: Seventy-five episodes of GNBI developed in 68 (1.4%) out of 4954 patients over a span of 9 years. The most frequently isolated bacterium was Conclusion: GNBI was a frequent complication among patients in the medical ICU. This study underscored the presence of diverse factors that either heightened or attenuated the risk of in-hospital death.
