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

backgroundThe use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry is gradually spreading among large-scale laboratories; however, this method is impractical for small-scale laboratories. In laboratories without access to these rapid identification methods, problems related to them remain unsolved. In this study, we aimed to develop a rapid and inexpensive method to presumptively identify Enterobacterales using CHROMagar Orientation medium.

methodsThe algorithm for presumptive identification of Enterobacteriaceae using CHROMagar Orientation medium was based on our previous studies. Modified property tests for indole, lysine decarboxylase, ornithine decarboxylase, and hydrogen sulfide were performed to evaluate the differentiation of the bacterial species.

resultsUsing the type strains and clinical isolates, it was possible to conduct the property tests at a low cost, within 4 hours. The spot indole test was performed without any nonspecific reactions for the bacteria forming colored colonies. The presumptive identification of bacteria was thereby possible within 24 hours after specimen submission.

conclusionAll these results suggest that the rapid presumptive identification of Enterobacterales is possible with this new identification method using CHROMagar Orientation medium. This is therefore a prompt and economical method that can be used in routine laboratory work.
