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

In Japan during 1996-2004, 21 actinomycete strains that have madurose as the diagnostic cell-wall sugar and show true branching in their substrate and aerial mycelia were isolated from sputa or bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid of patients with pulmonary infections or who were suspected of having related infections. Chemotaxonomic studies showed that all the isolates belong to the genus Actinomadura. Among them, six and seven strains were classified respectively into clusters of Actinomadura nitritigenes and Actinomadura cremea based on 16S rDNA analyses because their 16S rDNA similarities to those respective species were greater than 99.5%. To our knowledge, this is first report that strains of above two species were isolated from clinical specimens. Neither Actinomadura madurae nor Actinomadura pelletieri strain was isolated, and one new species, Actinomadura chibensis, was proposed; the remaining seven strains were not assigned into any known species, suggesting the presence of another new Actinomadura species.
