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

backgroundCommunity-acquired pneumonia (CAP) causes significant long-term morbidity and mortality. Existing clinical scores focus on short-term outcomes, highlighting the need to validate tools that accurately predict 12-month mortality in hospitalized patients. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective cohort of adults hospitalized with CAP from 2012 to 2020 was analyzed. Clinical, laboratory, radiological, and hospitalization-related data were collected. A Cox proportional hazards model was developed to predict post-acute mortality between 30 days and 12 months after hospital admission among patients with CAP who survived the first 30 days, with the cohort split 50:50. Model performance was evaluated using Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUROC) and standard diagnostic accuracy metrics.

resultsA total of 13,851 patients with CAP were included. In the derivation cohort, independent predictors were altered mental status (HR 2.08; 95% CI 1.49-2.90;

conclusionsThe new score demonstrated weak-to-moderate discriminatory capacity. The variables included in the new score reflect multiorgan involvement, disease severity, and comorbidity burden, all of which are associated with long-term mortality.
