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

Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry is not widely used to identify bacteria directly from positive blood culture bottles (BCBs) because of overlong protocols. The objective of this work was to develop and evaluate a simple extraction protocol for reliable identification from BCBs. The 10-min protocol was applied over a 5-month period. Direct identifications on day 0 were compared with those obtained from colonies on day 1 [log(score) of ≥2]. We evaluated a range of seven log(score) thresholds on day 0 from 1.4 to 2.0 to find the lower confidence score that provides the higher percentage of direct identifications without loss of accuracy. With a log(score) threshold of ≥1.5 at day 0, our protocol allowed us to identify 80% of bacteria in 632 BCBs (96% of
