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
objectivesThe prevalence of syphilis, caused by the spirochete
methodsTPA DNA was extracted from 136 genital ulcer swab or skin lesions samples deriving from 135 patients diagnosed with syphilis in 2016 and 2017 at the Public Health Service in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Molecular typing was done according to the enhanced CDC method (E-CDC), in which three genetic regions of the
resultsFull E-CDC strain types could be determined for 99/136 (73%) DNA samples, which tested positive in a diagnostic PCR targeting the
conclusionsA broad strain distribution was found. Few subtypes were clonally expanded, and most other subtypes were rare. Detection of the most prevalent strain type, 14d/g, is in concordance with other TPA typing studies. The high prevalence of genetic macrolide resistance indicates that azithromycin is not an alternative treatment option.
