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

A 68 year old man presented with urethritis and a purulent discharge, carrying the tentative diagnosis of gonorrhea. He had already been treated with multiple antibiotics. Microbiological investigation revealed Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a relatively frequent Gram-negative bacteria in hospitals, which can cause several nosocomial diseases such as pneumonia, wound infections and urogenital infections. Therapy can be difficult because of frequent antibiotic resistance. Guided by sensitivity studies, the patient was successfully treated with gyrase inhibitors. Pseudomonas aeruginosa-induced urogenital infections in ambulatory patients are extremely rare and usually not associated with a gonorrhea-like discharge.
