The Role of Intravascular Devices in Sepsis.
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 14 papers.
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
Intravascular devices (IVDs) are widely used in modern day health care. Unfortunately, their use is associated with substantial risk of bloodstream infection (BSI) and sepsis, with increased hospitalization and hospital mortality. IVDs are the most common cause of nosocomial BSI. The wider use of new methodologies for diagnosis of IVD-related infection should allow earlier and more focused therapy and, especially, improve the accuracy of surveillance. Of all nosocomial infections, IVD-related BSIs are most amendable to prevention.
