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.
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 and aims: Adenoviral pneumonia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among children. There is limited data about the clinical profile, intensive care needs, and outcomes of children with adenoviral pneumonia from resource-limited settings. Patients and methods: This retrospective study was conducted in the pediatric emergency room (PER) and pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of a tertiary care hospital in North India over a period of a period of 2 years (July 2022 to June 2024). The data collection included demographic and clinical features, laboratory investigations, complications, treatment, intensive care needs, and outcomes. Results: Eighty-five children were enrolled, majority were <1 year of age and males (71.7% each). All presented with fever and respiratory symptoms. The common complications were acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) (47%), multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (26%), shock (25%), and encephalopathy (25%). PICU admission was needed in 46% of children. The intensive care needs included invasive mechanical ventilation (48%), CPAP (39%), HFNC (9%), vasoactive drugs (25%), IVIG (8%), RRT (6%), and cidofovir (5%). The duration of ER, PICU, and hospital stay was 48 (24-96) hours, 7 (4-14) days, and 9 (5-18) days, respectively. The mortality rate was 22%. On multivariate analysis, the independent predictors of mortality were low admission pH, myocardial dysfunction, acute kidney (AKI), ARDS, shock, encephalopathy, MODS, and healthcare-associated infection (HCAI). Conclusion: Infants constituted the largest group of patients requiring admission for adenoviral infection to pediatric emergency in a tertiary care center. Common complications were ARDS, shock, MODS, and encephalopathy. Nearly half required PICU admission for organ support. The mortality rate was 22%; and low admission pH, myocardial dysfunction, AKI, ARDS, shock, encephalopathy, MODS, and HCAI were independent predictors of mortality.
