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

Background and Objectives: Neonatal septicemia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Understanding the patterns of antibiotic resistance and pathogen prevalence is crucial for effective treatment. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from 2016 to 2022 in the NICU of Vali-Asr Hospital in Tehran. All neonates diagnosed with septicemia were included. Data were collected using the hospital's registry system. Results: A total of 477 infants were hospitalized with sepsis, with 71.7% classified as early-onset sepsis (EOS) and 28.3% as late-onset sepsis (LOS). The most common pathogens were coagulase-negative Conclusion: The study highlights the high prevalence of antibiotic resistance in neonatal sepsis, emphasizing the need for continuous monitoring and tailored antibiotic stewardship programs. The findings underscore the importance of individualized treatment approaches to improve outcomes for neonates with sepsis.
