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
Purpose: Hospital-acquired otitis media (OM) is a common complication in children with bacterial pneumonia, associated with prolonged morbidity. Systemic inflammation indices (SII and AISI) may serve as biomarkers for OM risk. This study aimed to evaluate the association of SII and AISI with hospital-acquired OM risk in children (≤12 years) with bacterial pneumonia. Patients and Methods: A total of 388 children (aged ≤12 years) diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia were enrolled in this study from January 2024 to June 2025.. Data included demographic characteristics, birth history, feeding history, and laboratory tests. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between SII, AISI, and the risk of OM. This study constructed a nomogram prediction model, and the performance of the model was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Results: The majority of patients were male (54.90%) and aged ≤3 years (55.93%). Based on OM status, children were divided into No-OM group (n = 289) and OM group (n = 99). The OM group showed significantly elevated levels of inflammatory markers (WBC, NEU, MON, PLT, CRP, SII and AISI), alongside lower levels of RBC, HGB, and TP, compared to the No-OM group (all p<0.05). Multivariate analysis found log2-SII (OR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.05-1.82, p = 0.021) and log2-AISI (OR = 1.37, 95% CI: 1.07-1.78, p < 0.001) were risk factors of hospital acquired OM. Compared to log2-SII model (0.827, 95% CI: 0.780-0.875), log2-AISI model (0.834, 95% CI: 0.788-0.881) demonstrated superior discriminatory ability. Both models exhibited a favorable clinical benefit rate. Additionally, restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis showed a significant linear relationship between log2-SII, log2-AISI and OM risk (all P for nonlinear >0.05), with inflection points at 9.71 (log2-SII) and 8.16 (log2-AISI). Conclusion: This study established the predictive value of SII and AISI for hospital acquired OM in children aged ≤12 years with bacterial pneumonia. Integrating them into clinical practice can guide targeted prevention and thereby improve prognosis.
