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

Peritonitis is a serious and common infection. Its pathogenesis and microbiology have been well defined. Such risk factors as age, site of infection, physiologic response of the patient, presence of organ dysfunction, and malnutrition may influence the outcome of this disease process. The presence of antibiotic-resistant organisms and delays in operative intervention are also associated with treatment failure and higher mortality. Surgeons have the greatest impact on this disease in their ability to control the source of infection and to administer proper antimicrobial therapy.
