The other siblings: respiratory infections caused by Moraxella catarrhalis and Haemophilus influenzae.

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
Respiratory infections remain substantial causes of morbidity and mortality globally. In this paper, two substantial players in bacterial-associated respiratory disease are assessed as to their respective roles in children and adults and in the developed and developing world. Moraxella catarrhalis, although initially thought to be a nonpathogen, continues to emerge as a cause of upper respiratory disease in children and pneumonia in adults. No vaccine is currently available to prevent M. catarrhalis infection. Haemophilus influenzae type b, originally thought to be the cause of influenza, has now been limited epidemiologically in the developed world due to an effective immunization but it continues to be a major player in the developing world. Nonencapsulated strains of H. influenzae still remain as significant causes of respiratory infections in the developing world especially in exacerbation of chronic obstructive lung disease. Finally, and in brief, the spectrum of Brazilian purpuric fever due to a specific biotype of H. influenzae is discussed.
