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: Appropriate antibiotic therapy is a key determinant of outcomes in Methods: We conducted a retrospective multicenter study including hospitalized patients with Results: Overall, 639 BSI episodes were analyzed. The most frequent sources were an unknown source (31.8%), central venous catheter BSI (22.5%), hospital-acquired/ventilator-associated pneumonia (20.3%), urinary tract infections (11.4%), and intra-abdominal infections (6.9%). Source control was required in 34.0% of cases and was achieved early and adequately in 49.3% of these. The 30-day all-cause mortality rate was 23.9%. Mortality was significantly lower in patients who received early adequate source control (6.5%) compared with those without early adequate source control (23.6%) or in whom it was deemed unnecessary (28.4%) ( Conclusions: Early adequate source control is a critical determinant of survival in
