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

This paper is concerned with the qualitative analysis of two models [S. Bonhoeffer, M. Lipsitch, B.R. Levin, Evaluating treatment protocols to prevent antibiotic resistance, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94 (1997) 12106] for different treatment protocols to prevent antibiotic resistance. Detailed qualitative analysis about the local or global stability of the equilibria of both models is carried out in term of the basic reproduction number R(0). For the model with a single antibiotic therapy, we show that if R(0)<1, then the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable; if R(0)>1, then the disease-endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable. For the model with multiple antibiotic therapies, stabilities of various equilibria are analyzed and combining treatment is shown better than cycling treatment. Numerical simulations are performed to show that the dynamical properties depend intimately upon the parameters.
