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

Shigellosis presents with varied clinical features are dictated by the species involved, virulence factors of the strain, and the host immune status. We studied the species, virulence genes, and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of the Shigella strains isolated from 33 children aged less than 12 years, with clinical features of shigellosis. Identification and antibiotic sensitivity of Shigella species were done using disc diffusion and E-test. Multiplex PCR was done for the detection of virulence genes (ipaH, ial, set1A, set1B, sen, and stx) and ESBL genes. Parents of the children were interviewed using structured questionnaire to assess the severity of the disease; 26 (79%) of the isolates were Shigella flexneri. Ciprofloxacin and ceftriaxone resistance was seen in 23 (69%) and 3 (9%) Shigella isolates respectively. Two ceftriaxone-resistant strains were found to harbour blaCTX gene and the third blaTEM gene. Virulence gene ipaH was detected in 100% of strains while ial, sen, setlA, and setlB were detected in 85%, 61%, 48%, and 48% respectively.
