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

The American Thoracic Society (ATS)/Infectious Disease Society of American (IDSA) guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) were released in 2019. While most categories had minor updates, one major change was abandonment of the term "healthcare-associated pneumonia" (HCAP). The guidelines also recommended against use of procalcitonin for the decision to initiate antibiotics; recommended against use of corticosteroids in all cases but pneumonia with septic shock; and recommended obtaining blood and sputum cultures in patients with pneumonia at risk for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) or Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This review will cover studies published since the 2019 guidelines that help answer unaddressed questions and/or add clarity to areas of uncertainty.
