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

Antibiotics are among the most common pharmaceutical agents used by the interventional radiologist. This article updates some of the practical aspects of the use of antibiotics in interventional radiological practice and provides some general guidelines with respect to indications for and selection of antibiotics. In particular, the objectives of this article are to review the basic pharmacology of the common antibiotic agents, the interventional radiological procedures in which prophylactic antibiotics are usually administered, the specific antimicrobial agents recommended for prophylaxis before common interventional radiological procedures, the appropriate antibiotics for patients allergic to penicillins, and the indications for antibiotic prophylaxis to prevent bacterial endocarditis.
