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

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) formerly colonized and infected only inpatients in hospitals, but have been reported in community settings worldwide over the last 20 years. In France, the prevalence of such MRSA remains low and outbreaks have, until now, been mainly due to the ST80 clone. However, there were two outbreaks of MRSA clone ST-USA300 recently in France, including one involving children. To investigate epidemiological developments, we studied the 77 MRSA isolated from pediatric patients hospitalized between 2008 and 2013 in three French hospitals. The median incidence of MRSA was stable and low (0.137 per 100 admissions). The prevalence of Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-positive MRSA was high (33.8 %). The 26 PVL-positive MRSA were genetically diverse, with two clones being predominant: ST80 (12 isolates, 46.1 %) and ST8-USA300 (8 isolates, 30.8 %). The incidence of ST8-USA300 increased over the 6-year period. We believe that screening for ST8-USA300 should be improved: medical biologists should be encouraged to search for PVL genes in all MRSA isolates recovered from abscesses, whatever the susceptibility pattern of the isolate, and not only when suggestive of ST80.
