Management and Prevention of Clostridium difficile-Associated Diarrhea.
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. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Clostridium difficile is a major cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. While treatment regimens for C. difficile have been available for decades, they remain less than optimal due to the frequent recurrences that occur after therapy is completed. Moreover, the morbidity and expense associated with C. difficile have underscored the need for more effective preventive measures than are currently available. In this review, we outline the current recommendations for treatment and prevention of C. difficile infection and, highlight some promising new approaches that may help to control this common nosocomial pathogen in the future.
