Performance Validation of Selective Screening Agars for Guiding Antimicrobial Prophylaxis in Patients Undergoing Prostate Biopsy.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A rectal culture-guided antimicrobial prophylaxis strategy may prevent infections after transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy (TRUSP). The use of selective culture media could assist the choice of appropriate antibiotic prophylaxis. The objective of our study was to evaluate the performance of four selective media used for guidance of oral antibiotic prophylaxis in TRUSP. In this prospective validation study, we used MacConkey media with vancomycin plus one of the following antibiotics: ciprofloxacin (McC3+CIP/V), trimethoprim (McC3+TMP/V), fosfomycin (McC3+FOF/V), and amdinocillin-amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (McC3+MEC/V). First, clinical strains of Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) (
