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

Gastrointestinal infections represent a significant global health burden, ranking as the second leading cause of mortality among infants and children. Identifying of pathogens causing neonatal gastrointestinal infections has presented tough challenges. This study aimed to summarize the prevalence of common pathogens associated with neonatal gastrointestinal infections through a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis of published literature. The last search was performed on January 08, 2025, from databases including EMBASE, PubMed, Cochrane Libary, and Web of Science. The outcome variable was infection rate, and the detection methods used were blood culture, tissue culture, or molecular biology methods. Two researchers independently extracted the research data and evaluated its quality using the JBI Critical Appraisal Tools. Twenty-three studies met the inclusion criteria. The pooled prevalence rates of common pathogens were as follows: Bacteria, including Escherichia (22.2%; 95% CI 8.3-40.4%, I
