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

Background Critically ill adults with gram-negative pneumonia who require invasive mechanical ventilation have a high risk of adverse outcomes and in-hospital mortality. Objective The objective of this study is to determine the in-hospital mortality rate and identify predictors of mortality among intubated and mechanically ventilated adult patients with gram-negative pneumonia. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 178 adult patients with microbiologically confirmed gram-negative pneumonia requiring endotracheal intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation. Demographic characteristics, comorbidities, severity scores, microbiological profile, antimicrobial resistance patterns, laboratory parameters, and clinical outcomes were reviewed. A total of 178 gram-negative isolates were identified. Results The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 76/178 (42.7%). The most frequently isolated pathogens were
