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: This study examines the distribution characteristics of pathogenic bacteria in respiratory infections and their relationship with inflammatory markers to guide clinical drug use. Methods: We selected 120 patients with lower respiratory tract infection in the electronic medical record system of Xinjiang Provincial People's Hospital from March 2019 to March 2023 for a case-control study. Using Indirect Immunofluorescence Antibody test(IFA), blood routine, C-reactive Protein (CRP), and High-sensitivity C-reactive Protein(hsCRP), we detected nine respiratory pathogens (Respiratory syncytial virus; Influenza A virus; Influenza B virus; Parainfluenza virus; Adenovirus; Mycoplasma pneumoniae; Chlamydia pneumoniae; Legionella pneumophila type 1; Rickettsia Q) in all patients and analyzed their distribution and correlation. The patients were divided into three groups [Respiratory Syncytial Virus Immunoglobulin M(RSV-IgM) positive group A, Mycoplasma Immunoglobulin M(MP - IgM) positive group B, antibody - negative group with elevated hsCRP, 40 patients each]. We compared differences in hsCRP, platelet count, White Blood Cells(WBC), and Neutrophil(NE) among the groups. Results: We conducted a systematic sorting and analysis of variables exhibiting significant differences. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that inflammatory markers, including white blood cell count (WBC) (OR 3.85, 95% CI: 1.116-1.623), neutrophils (NE) (OR 2.26, 95% CI: 1.091-1.312), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HsCRP) (OR 1.95, 95% CI: 1.068-14.640), lymphocytes (OR 1.30, 95% CI: 1.045-1.134), platelet count (OR 1.34, 95% CI: 1.625-2.760), and C-reactive protein (CRP) (OR 3.80, 95% CI: 1.232-2.379), were significantly associated with the presence of pathogenic bacteria. Conclusion: There was significant correlation between inflammatory markers and pathogenic bacteria in patients with lower respiratory tract infection in Xinjiang region.
