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 des-fluoroquinolone BMS 284756 was active in vitro against all 151 clinical strains of Eikenella corrodens at a MIC of < or = 0.25 microg/ml and was comparable in activity to moxifloxacin and levofloxacin. The MIC at which 90% of the isolates were inhibited by penicillin G was 2 microg/ml; MICs for 8.6% of the strains (13 of 151) were > or = 4 microg/ml, including for two beta-lactamase-producing isolates. Amoxicillin-clavulanate and ampicillin-sulbactam inhibited all strains at a MIC of < or = 1 microg/ml.
