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

backgroundTo analyze the clinical characteristics of children with adenoviral pneumonia, identify independent risk factors for early prediction of plastic bronchiolitis (PB), and develop a predictive nomogram.

methodsThis retrospective study analyzed the clinical data of children diagnosed with adenoviral pneumonia. Patients were categorized into PB and non-PB groups. General characteristics, clinical symptoms, laboratory findings, and imaging results were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify significant risk factors, and a nomogram model was constructed.

resultsAmong the 164 patients, 139 were in the non-PB group and 25 were in the PB group. Multivariate logistic regression identified diminished breath sounds, D-dimer (D-D) levels, and Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) levels as significant risk factors for PB. The nomogram developed from these factors had an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.904 (95% confidence interval: 0.847-0.960). The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed good calibration (p = 0.515, X

conclusionsDiminished breath sounds, D-D levels, and LDH levels are independent risk factors for PB in children with adenoviral pneumonia. The developed nomogram demonstrates high predictive accuracy and good calibration, providing a valuable tool for early prediction and clinical decision-making. Future studies should validate this nomogram in larger and diverse populations.
