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

The poor diffusion of intravenous antibiotics in lung tissue makes nosocomial pneumonia challenging to treat, notably in critical patients under mechanical ventilation. The combination of ultrasound and microbubbles (USMB) is an emerging method for non-invasive and targeted enhancement of uptake of various drugs in several organs. This study aims to evaluate if USMB may increase amikacin concentration in condensed lung tissues in a mechanically ventilated rabbit model. When applied 60 or 160 min after the beginning of an intravenous amikacin infusion, USMB increased amikacin concentration in the condensed lung tissue by 1.33 (
