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

As part of a large, ongoing study of invasive infections in pediatric patients in Bamako, Mali, 106 cases of invasive pneumococcal disease were identified from June 2002 to July 2003 (J. D. Campbell et al., Pediatr. Infect. Dis. J. 23:642-649, 2004). Of the 12 serotypes present, the majority of isolates were not contained in PCV7 (the 7-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine), including 1 isolate that was serotype 1, 12 isolates that were serotype 2, 58 isolates that were serotype 5, 7 isolates that were serotype 7F, and 1 isolate that was serotype 12F. To determine whether clonal dissemination of the predominant serotypes had taken place, genotyping was performed on 100 S. pneumoniae isolates by using two methods: pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of SmaI-digested genomic DNA, and the Bacterial Barcodes repetitive-element PCR (rep-PCR) method. Criteria for delineating rep-PCR genotypes were established such that isolates of different serotypes were generally not grouped together. The two methods were equally discriminatory within a given pneumococcal serotype. PFGE separated the isolates into 15 genotypes and 7 subtypes; rep-PCR separated isolates into 15 genotypes and 6 subtypes. Using either method, isolates within serotypes 2, 5, and 7 formed three large, separate clusters containing 1 genotype each. Both methods further distinguished related subtypes within serotypes 2 and 5. Interestingly, one of the PFGE subtypes of serotype 5 is indistinguishable from the Columbia(5)-19 clone circulating in Latin America since 1994. The data support that serotypes 2 and 5 were likely to be the result of dissemination of particular clones, some of which are responsible for invasive disease over a broad population range.
