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

An observational, single-center study was conducted among hospitalized children with community-acquired pneumonia in the Baoding area. The objective was to compare the respiratory pathogen profiles and epidemiological patterns during and after the lifting of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs, including mask-wearing, social distancing, lockdowns, etc.). A total of 9,362 hospitalized children diagnosed with CAP in Baoding from January 2022 to December 2023 were included. Both viral and bacterial pathogens were detected by multiplex PCR. The NPIs were lifted in Baoding from 2 December 2022. A comparative analysis was conducted on demographic data, epidemiological data, pathogen detection rates, and co-infection patterns that were compared between the full year 2022 and 2023. The detection rate of at least one pathogen significantly increased from 74.2% (2,925/3,940) in 2022 to 86.5% (4,690/5,422) in 2023 (
