Effect of one dose of ceftriaxone during endotracheal intubation on the incidence of aspiration pneumonia in cerebral hemorrhage patients: A randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical study protocol.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionPatients with cerebral hemorrhage often require a tracheal intubation to protect the airway and maintain oxygenation. Due to the use of analgesic and sedative drugs during endotracheal intubation and the opening of the glottis may easily cause aspiration pneumonia. Ceftriaxone is a semi-synthetic third-generation cephalosporin with strong antimicrobial activity against most gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It can effectively prevent and treat aspiration pneumonia. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical study. Patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) undergoing endotracheal intubation in Dong E Hospital of Shandong Province from April 2023 to April 2025 will be enrolled and randomly assigned to the intervention group or control group. The intervention group will be treated using 100mL 0.9% sodium chloride with 2g ceftriaxone intravenously over the course of one hour beginning within two hours after endotracheal intubation. The control group will be given 100mL 0.9% sodium chloride injection intravenously of the course of one hour beginning within two hours after endotracheal intubation. The primary outcome is the incidence of aspiration pneumonia within 48 hours after endotracheal intubation. Secondary outcomes include: intensity of antimicrobial use, length of hospital stay, duration without mechanical ventilation, and 28-day mortality. DISCUSSION: The primary objective of this study is to explore whether a single dose of ceftriaxone administered during endotracheal intubation in patients with ICH reduced the incidence of pneumonia within 48 hours and provide evidence for the prevention of aspiration pneumonia in patients with ICH with endotracheal intubation.
