Quinolone Resistance: Older Concepts and Newer Developments.
Article in Current infectious disease reports, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
New quinolone compounds have been recommended for use in the treatment of respiratory tract infections, particularly pneumonia caused by multi drug-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae. Of concern, however, is the recent emergence of pneumococcal isolates with reduced susceptibilities to both old and new quinolone compounds. This necessitates the employment of quinolone-use strategies aimed at restricting the emergence of resistance, to extend the effectiveness of this very important class of antibacterial agents. This article provides a comprehensive review of the recent discoveries in type II topoisomerase/quinolone structure-function relationships. It also addresses new insights into the mechanisms of quinolone resistance, the predicted trends in quinolone resistance, and possible strategies for quinolone use against S. pneumoniae.
