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

Objective: This study aimed to analyze the risk factors associated with healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in individuals who underwent post-coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and to develop a predictive model for infection risk assessment. Methods: Clinical data were retrospectively collected from patients who underwent CABG at our hospital between January 2019 and December 2023. Data sources included the hospital infection surveillance system, hospital information system, and a questionnaire for HAIs in patients after cardiac surgery. Patients were divided into an infection group and a non-infection group based on whether they developed HAIs during the postoperative hospitalization period. Logistic regression was used to identify independent risk factors and to develop a risk prediction model. The predictive performance of the model was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Results: Independent risk factors for HAIs post-CABG included diabetes (odds ratio [OR] = 1.467), preoperative white blood cell count (OR = 0.117), preoperative albumin levels (OR = -0.146), intraoperative blood transfusion (OR = 0.001), presence of an indwelling drainage tube (OR = 0.864), drainage volume (OR = 0.003), duration of ventilator use (OR = 0.656), and central venous catheterization time (OR = 0.103). The predictive model was established as: Ln (P/1-P) = -2.230 + 1.467 * diabetes + 0.117 * preoperative white blood cell count -0.146 * preoperative albumin + 0.001 * intraoperative blood transfusion + 0.864 * drainage tube indwelling + 0.003 * drainage volume + 0.656 * ventilator use time + 0.103 * central venous catheterization time. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test indicated a good model fit with observed values. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that the model achieved an area under the curve of 0.970, with a sensitivity of 90.5% and a specificity of 92.1%. Conclusion: The independent risk factors for HAIs after CABG were diabetes, body mass index, preoperative white blood cell count, intraoperative blood transfusion volume, duration of pericardial and mediastinal drainage tube placement, total drainage volume, duration of mechanical ventilation, and duration of central venous catheterization. The developed risk prediction model demonstrated high accuracy in estimating postoperative HAI risk.
