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

backgroundGranulicatella adiacens is a normal commensal of human mucosal surfaces, inhabiting the oral cavity and urogenital and gastrointestinal tracts and only rarely causing disease. These gram-positive cocci can be difficult to identify. CASE REPORT: We report a first case of bacteremia caused by Granulicatella adiacens in an elderly female trauma victim. The infection was diagnosed accurately, and the patient was treated successfully.

conclusionGranulicatella adiacens may be a more important pathogen than thus far recognized because of a lack of adequate diagnostic resources. Standards for sensitivity testing are needed urgently.
