Colonization Rate and Risk Factors of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci among Patients Received Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Shiraz, Southern Iran.
Article in International journal of organ transplantation medicine, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundInfections caused by antimicrobial-resistant bacteria are associated with increased mortality and health care costs. Enterococci have been recognized as a clinically important pathogen in hospitalized patients. Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) infections cause significant morbidity and mortality among patients undergoing transplantation.
objectiveTo identify epidemiology of VRE colonization and related risk factors among patients with hematological malignancies after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
methodsThis cross-sectional study was performed on 42 patients who underwent bone-marrow transplantation between July 2013 and March 2014. A stool sample was taken from each patient 3-5 days after transplantation and cultured on appropriate media. Suspected colonies of enterococci were detected to species level by their culture characteristics, biochemical reactions and molecular features. VRE were confirmed via phenotypic and genotypic methods.
resultsVRE were detected in 14 (33%) of studied samples. 10 (71%) of the detected VRE isolates were identified as high level vancomycin-resistant
conclusionWe found high level of vancomycin-resistance in
