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

The phenotypic and genetic characteristics of resistance to macrolides and lincosamides among 72 Ureaplasma urealyticum clinical strains isolated in Guangzhou, China were investigated in this study. Strains were studied by resistance phenotyping, detection of resistance genes (ermB, msrA, msrB, msrC, and msrD), and determining the significance of an association between the presence of resistance genes and the int-Tn gene (a genetic marker of transposon). The ermB, msrA, msrB, msrC, and msrD genes were obtained in 21, 1, 12, 0, and 24 strains, respectively. The msrB and msrD genes were detected in strains of macrolides (M) or macrolides-streptogramin B (MS) resistance phenotype, and the ermB gene was detected in strains of M or macrolide-lincosamide (ML) phenotype in U. urealyticum. Statistical analysis revealed that only the ermB gene was closely associated with the int-Tn gene. It was concluded that U. urealyticum harbored the ermB, msrA, msrB, and msrD genes which confer resistance to macrolides and (or) lincosamides. The ermB gene may be located in the U. urealyticum transposon.
