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

objectivesLegionnaires' disease (LD) is a severe type of pneumonia caused by inhalation of aerosols contaminated with

methodsTo identify the source of LD, we interviewed the patient's husband using a questionnaire based on the

results

conclusionsThe likely source of infection was the building's potable water, particularly heated water. Further study of effective monitoring systems in heated potable water should be considered.
