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 activity of CEM-101, a fluoroketolide, was compared to those of 11 other antimicrobial agents using the reference broth microdilution method tested against 103 Neisseria meningitidis strains, including ciprofloxacin-nonsusceptible isolates with confirmed gyrA (T91I) mutations. Among the tested isolates, 79.6% were serogroup B or C and all isolates were susceptible to ceftriaxone, azithromycin, minocycline, and rifampin. However, penicillin-nonsusceptible strains were observed (15.5%) and susceptibility to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole was only 50.5%. CEM-101 was the most active macrolide-like compound (MIC(90), < or = 0.015 microg/ml) compared with MIC(90)s of telithromycin (MIC(90), 0.03 microg/ml), azithromycin and clarithromycin (MIC(90), 0.12 microg/ml), and erythromycin (MIC(90), 0.25 microg/ml). CEM-101 could provide a potent alternative for the prophylaxis of meningococcal disease.
