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

The second-generation fluoroquinolones have enjoyed successful clinical use for more than 10 years in many countries, and they have a valued and proven record of safety and efficacy. However, deficiencies with respect to gram-positive and anaerobic organisms limit the use of these agents in respiratory, intra-abdominal, and pelvic infections. New, third-generation agents with dramatically increased activity against gram-positive and anaerobic bacteria--notably, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Bacteroides fragilis--have shown high rates of efficacy in pneumonia, bronchitis, and surgical and gynecologic infections. Although most of these new drugs produce similar clinical results, adverse reaction profiles differ and may influence therapeutic choices.
