[Antimicrobial and antimycotic therapy of intra-abdominal infections].
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Antimicrobial chemotherapy is a cornerstone in the treatment of intra-abdominal infections (IAI). The initiation of initial antibiotic therapy must immediately follow the diagnosis of IAI. Selection of the antimicrobial agent is based on the expected pathogenic bacterial spectrum as a calculated empirical therapy. It is impossible to give general recommendations concerning the selection of a certain class of antimicrobial chemotherapeutics, since all available clinical trials were designed to prove noninferiority to the comparator product. Nevertheless several societies developed guidelines and recommendations based on the multitude of clinical trials investigating antimicrobial chemotherapeutics. The antibiotic therapy of postoperative peritonitis has to be implemented according to the patient's risk profile (antibiotic pretreatment, multiresistant pathogens, hospital epidemiology). The development of invasive peritoneal mycoses is rare. The therapy should be guided by the results of the microbiological work-up of the intraperitoneal cultures.
