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

Currently, there is no Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) disk diffusion method for testing Moraxella catarrhalis susceptibility. We examined 318 clinical strains of M. catarrhalis obtained as part of the SENTRY (Asia-Pacific) Antimicrobial Surveillance Program, plus two ATCC strains. MICs were determined by the CLSI standard broth microdilution method, and zone diameters were determined on Mueller-Hinton agar incubated in 5% CO(2). All strains were examined for the presence of BRO-1 and BRO-2 beta-lactamases by using molecular techniques. Tentative zone diameter interpretive criteria were successfully developed for 19 antimicrobial agents, including nine beta-lactams, using current MIC interpretive criteria where available or wild-type cutoff values where no prior criteria were available. The proposed interpretive criteria were highly accurate, with <or=0.7% very major (falsely susceptible) and <or=1.0% major (falsely resistant) errors, respectively.
