Fluoroquinolone Prophylaxis Is Highly Effective for the Prevention of Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections in Autologous Stem Cell Transplant Patients.
Article in Biology of blood and marrow transplantation : journal of the American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Patients undergoing stem cell transplant (SCT) for the treatment of hematologic malignancy are at increased risk for central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs). The use of prophylactic antibiotics to prevent CLABSIs in the setting of autologous SCT is of unclear benefit. We aimed to evaluate the impact of levofloxacin prophylaxis on reducing CLABSIs in this high-risk population. Patients undergoing autologous SCT at a tertiary care hospital received levofloxacin prophylaxis from January 13, 2016 to January 12, 2017. Levofloxacin was administered from autologous SCT (day 0) until day 13, absolute neutrophil count > 500/mm
