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

Inpatient infectious disease (ID) consult services have recently been experiencing increased patient volumes due to a variety of factors, including higher patient complexity, increased patient turnover, growing rates of antimicrobial resistant infections, population aging, and ID outbreaks. As a result, increased time and resources have been required to continue to deliver high-quality medical care to patients. At academic teaching hospitals, providing patient care in the context of increased volumes must be balanced with the educational mission for trainees. Rounding is a central component of ID clinical work which brings together patient care and education. In this narrative review, we aim to delineate different rounding styles and summarize the literature on inpatient rounding. We also discuss unique aspects of inpatient ID rounding and consider advantages and disadvantages of different rounding styles with attention to their impact on patient care, education, and workflow.
