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

Linezolid showed MIC50s and MIC90s of 1 μg/ml (for both) against Staphylococcus aureus. Two S. aureus strains exhibited higher MICs (4 to 8 μg/ml) caused by cfr and/or target site mutations, including the first detection of cfr in Poland. Linezolid (MIC50 and MIC90, 0.5 and 1 μg/ml) had potent MICs against coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS). Four CoNS had MICs of 16 to 128 μg/ml due to alterations in 23S rRNA and/or L3/L4. Linezolid inhibited all enterococci and streptococci at ≤2 μg/ml, except for one Enterococcus faecium strain (MIC, 8 μg/ml; G2576T [Escherichia coli numbering] mutation).
