Trends in Bacteremia Over 2 Decades in the Top End of the Northern Territory of Australia.
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundInformation on the local distribution of bloodstream pathogens helps to guide empiric antibiotic selection and can generate hypotheses regarding the effectiveness of infection prevention practices. We assessed trends in bacterial blood culture isolates at Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH) in the Northern Territory of Australia between 1999 and 2019.
methodsSpecies identification was extracted for all blood cultures first registered at RDH. Thirteen organisms were selected for focused analysis. Trends were examined graphically and using univariable linear regression.
resultsBetween 1999 and 2019, 189 577 blood cultures from 65 276 patients were processed at RDH. Overall, 6.72% (12 747/189 577) of blood cultures contained a bacterial pathogen.
