Evaluation of the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-Screen latex agglutination test for detection of MRSA of animal origin.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Methicillin (oxacillin)-resistant staphylococci (MRS) have emerged as major clinical and epidemiological pathogens, and there have been frequent reports of MRS infections in the veterinary field. The MRSA-Screen latex agglutination test (Denka Seiken Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) was compared with an oxacillin agar screen test, MIC determination, and mecA PCR assay, the "gold standard." In an analysis of 15 mecA-positive and 48 mecA-negative S. aureus animal isolates, as well as 9 mecA-positive and 147 mecA-negative, coagulase-negative staphylococcal animal isolates, the latex agglutination test surpassed the widely used oxacillin agar screen method and MIC determination, with a sensitivity and a specificity of 100%. The MRSA-Screen test is a reliable and rapid method of detecting MRS in the veterinary field.
