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 molecular fingerprinting of a collection of 94 Staphylococcus aureus isolates from patients with osteomyelitis in Argentina was performed. Twenty-three SmaI pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) types and 37 spa types were identified. The isolates were assigned to 23 sequence types (STs). The proportion of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) isolates was significantly higher among cap5 S. aureus (35/61) compared with cap8 S. aureus (8/33) isolates (p = 0.0025). Twenty-four of the 94 isolates carried the lukS-PV/lukF-PV genes, which were significantly associated to cap5 [(23/38) compared with cap8 S. aureus isolates (1/32) (p = 0.0001)]. Forty of the 94 isolates carried genes of the egc locus (seg/sei). The distribution of seg/sei genes among isolates was related to certain clones. Isolates of the four agr types were found in the S. aureus collection. Whereas agr I isolates were evenly distributed among cap5 and cap8 S. aureus isolates (32/61 and 14/33, respectively), the agr II group was composed of 29 cap5 S. aureus isolates and agr III was composed of 16 cap8 S. aureus isolates. Two clones originally associated to animals (ST 188, 7 isolates and ST 1796, 5 isolates) were associated with chronic osteomyelitis and lack of capsular polysaccharide (CP) production. Loss of CP production remains the single factor among those investigated that is associated with chronic osteomyelitis.
