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

Tigecycline is a new glycylcycline antibiotic structurally similar to minocycline antibiotic. It has broad spectrum activity, including Staphylococcus aureus infections. This is the first study that evaluated the activity of Tigecycline against Staphylococcus aureus isolated from biological samples in Iran. In vitro activity of tigecycline against 160 Staphylococcus aureus including 99 methicillin-resistant S. aureus and 61 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus from inpatients at Imam Khomeini Hospital, Tehran, Iran was assessed. Bacterial susceptibility tests were performed by the disk diffusion method and also E-test for methicillin-resistant S. aureus isolates. All isolated had inhibition zone of ≥ 19 mm, with the minimum inhibitory concentration 50 (MIC50) and MIC90 of 0.19 and 0.5 μg/mL, respectively. The study results indicated that all methicillin-resistant S. aureus and methicillin-susceptible S. aureus isolates were susceptible to tigecycline.
