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

With contemporary cystic fibrosis (CF) care, a lung abscess is an uncommon occurrence. We describe a case of a staphylococcal lung abscess in a teenage girl with CF who presented with a two-week history of non-specific malaise followed by two days of left posterior chest pain and fever. A chest radiograph was consistent with a left sided pulmonary abscess, which was confirmed on a CT scan of the chest. The abscess was drained under ultrasound guidance and cultured methicillin-sensitive
