Screening of volunteer students in Yaounde (Cameroon, Central Africa) for Chlamydia trachomatis infection and genotyping of isolated C. trachomatis strains.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The prevalence of Chlamydia trachomatis infection was 3.78% out of 1,277 volunteer students screened by direct fluorescence assay and Cobas Amplicor PCR. The infection was associated with the nonuse or inconsistent use of condoms in women (P = 0.026) and a previous sexually transmitted infection in men (P = 0.023). The most frequent genotypes determined by sequencing the omp1 genes of 25 clinical isolates were E (44%) and F (20%), and some strains harbored mutations, but E genotype strains did not.
