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

Mono- and biexponential killing curves for vancomycin over a 2- to 50-micrograms/ml concentration range were generated for 11 Staphylococcus aureus isolates and 12 coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species in the logarithmic phase of growth. Nonlinear least-squares regression of the initial growth rate and disappearance were not significantly different for lower or higher concentrations of vancomycin in broth.
