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

objectiveNon-cystic fibrosis (non-CF) bronchiectasis is a chronic lung disease, primarily characterised by neutrophilic inflammation, with MATERIAL AND

methodsIn this retrospective study, children who were diagnosed with non-CF bronchiectasis were grouped based on nutritional status, eosinophilia, age at first pneumonia, and the most frequently isolated microorganisms. Clinical outcomes were compared across groups.

resultsAmong 106 patients (61.3% male), malnutrition was present in 48.1% and eosinophilia in 39.6%. Primary immunodeficiency was the most common etiology (39.6%). HI and

conclusionNon-CF bronchiectasis in childhood may be preventable and/or non-progressive when diagnosed early. Clinical features such as malnutrition, eosinophilia, PA isolation, and early-onset pneumonia may help identify children who could benefit from closer clinical monitoring. Further pediatric studies are needed to validate these associations.
