Case report: The first case of Achromobacter xylosoxidans-related tunnel infection in a patient receiving peritoneal dialysis.
Article in Medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
rationaleAchromobacter xylosoxidans infection is mostly reported in immunocompromised patients. Until now, it is still rarely reported in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis. PATIENT CONCERNS: This is the 1st case of A xylosoxidans infection due to tunnel infection of a Tenckhoff catheter. DIAGNOSIS: The diagnosis was confirmed by the report of culture.
interventionsRisk factors for this infection in peritoneal dialysis include uremia with an immunocompromised state, contamination due to inexperienced skills, and aqueous environment of the dialysate. OUTCOME: We believe that finding the source of A xylosoxidans contamination is the most important aspect of the overall treatment of the infection. LESSONS: Environmental investigation of suspected source contamination is warranted in those with A xylosoxidans infection. Once the diagnosis is made, removal of the Tenckhoff catheter should not be delayed.
