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

Pneumococcal meningitis is a global scourge. It is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. In Morocco, 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) was introduced into the National Immunization Program in October 2010 according to the immunization schedule 2 + 1 and replaced by PCV10 in July 2012, according to the same schedule. Despite the use of the PCV13, which is essential in the fight against pneumococcal disease, the emergence of new non-vaccine serotypes always results in meningitis in children, causing serious sequelae. We report the case of an infant vaccinated with two doses of PCV13 with meningitis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 7a. The peculiarity of this case study lies in pneumococcal meningitis due to Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 7a not included in the PCV13 in an infant immunized by 2 doses of PCV13. We here insist on the need and the importance of an observatory for pneumococcal meningitis and of a wide epidemiological study in order to determine the serotypes in Morocco after the introduction of PCV13 and then of PCV10.
