Association between Gustave Roussy Immune Score and delay in discharge among children and adolescents with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Frontiers in pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MPP) is one of the leading causes of hospitalization and death in children. Epidemiological studies have confirmed that single blood indicators such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), and albumin (Alb) levels are associated with the prognosis and length of stay (LOS) of patients with MPP. In this study, we aim to evaluate the association of the GRIm score with the LOS and compare its strength of association with that of its individual components. Methods: We recruited 786 children with MPP who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine during the period between 2014 and 2021. The end of follow-up was discharge. Univariate and multivariate logistics regression models were used to explore the association between the NLR, LDH, Alb as well as the GRIm score with the LOS among our cohort, with odd ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, the net reclassification improvement (NRI) index, and the integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) index were used to compare the predictive efficacy of the GRIm score with the NLR and LDH and in predicting the LOS among children and adolescents with MPP. Results: After the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 389 eligible children and adolescents with MPP were included, with a mean age of 5.21 (±2.59 years). After adjusting for covariates, we found that LDH and the GRIm score were positivity associated with the LOS (LDH: Conclusion: The GRIm score showed a significant association with the prolonged LOS in children with MPP, and the strength of this association was higher than its individual components. However, these findings still need to be confirmed by further large multicenter prospective cohort studies.
