Susceptibility of Contact Lens-Related
Article in Translational vision science & technology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
Purpose: This study analyzed the susceptibilities of 17 contact lens (CL)-related keratitis isolates of Methods: Antibiotics included ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, gentamicin, tobramycin, piperacillin, imipenem, ceftazidime, and polymyxin B. The MPDS OPTI-FREE PureMoist, Complete RevitaLens OcuTec, Biotrue, and Renu Advanced Formula and the constituent disinfectants; alexidine dihydrochloride, polyquaternium-1, polyaminopropyl biguanide, and myristamidopropyl dimethylamine (Aldox) were analyzed. The combined susceptibility of disinfectants based on the MPDS formulation was assessed through fractional inhibitory concentration. Results: All isolates were susceptible to levofloxacin and gentamicin, 2/17 were resistant to ciprofloxacin; 1/17 was resistant to tobramycin, piperacillin, and polymyxin; and 3/17 were resistant to ceftazidime whereas 12/17 were resistant to imipenem. Of the four MPDSs, for Renu Advanced Formula 8/17 strains have an MIC ≤ 11.36 for OPTI-FREE PureMoist 14/17 strains have an MIC ≤ 11.36% for Complete RevitaLens 9/17 strains have an MIC ≤ 11.36, and for Biotrue 5/17 strains have MIC = 11.36. All strains were killed by 100% MPDS. At the concentrations used in the MPDSs, individual disinfectants were not active. From three tested isolates, no synergy was found in dual combinations of disinfectants. However, synergy was found for triple combination of disinfectants for three tested strains. Conclusions: Australian CL-related isolates of Translational Relevance: This study will help to choose better preventive and treatment measures for microbial keratitis.
