Clinical and Etiological Spectrum of Viral Pneumonia in Critically Ill Children: A Retrospective Study.
Article in Indian pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo describe the clinical profile and the predictors of outcome in children with viral pneumonia.
methodsThis retrospective study included children (1 to 120 months) admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit with severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) of viral etiology confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing of nasopharyngeal swabs or endotracheal aspirates.
resultsOut of 180 children admitted with SARI, 160 were screened by PCR testing; 112 had a proven viral etiology; respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) being the commonest (40.2%), followed by rhinovirus (25.9%), and adenovirus (19.6%). 96 required high-flow oxygen support, and 23 needed mechanical ventilation. Adenoviral infections accounted for all five deaths (4.5%) and were significantly associated with need for mechanical ventilation [aOR 9.3 (95%CI 3.1, 30.5)], shock [aOR 12.8 (95%CI 3.9, 47.2)], and multi-organ dysfunction [aOR 15.3 (95%CI 4.4, 60.8)].
conclusionThe broad impact of adenovirus infections on various organ systems in children underscores the need for thorough surveillance, high suspicion, early detection, and effective management of potential complications.
