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

It is still challenging to prevent and treat respiratory infectious diseases. One critical step in the successful treatment of respiratory infections is rapid diagnosis by identifying the causative microorganisms in a timely fashion. However, traditional methods for identification of causative agents could not satisfy the need for rapid and accurate testing due to the limitations of technology-used. In recent years, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) has been validated and used for rapid identification of microorganism and for potential discovery of diseases associated biomarkers. We reviewed recent advances of MALDI-TOF-MS as the laboratory diagnostic tool for the rapid laboratory diagnosis of microorganisms associated with respiratory infectious diseases, with the focus on rapid identification of pathogenic bacteria and molecular markers discovery using MALDI-TOF-MS. With the advanced technologies such as MALDI-TOF, early and targeted therapies based on rapid identification of pathogens and could lead to quick and effective treatment of respiratory infections and better patient management.
