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

Neisseria gonorrhoeae (gonococcus) is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes gonorrhoea-a sexually transmitted disease. This gonococcus has progressively developed resistance to most of the available antimicrobials. Only a few countries around the world have been able to run extensive surveillance programmes on gonococcal infection and antimicrobial resistance, raising a global concern. Thus, this review focuses on the mechanisms of resistance to recommended antimicrobials in the past and present time. The approaches by the scientific community in the development of novel technologies such as whole-genome sequencing to predict antimicrobial resistance, track gonococcal transmission, as well as, introduce new therapeutics like Solithromycin, Zoliflodacin, and Gepotidacin were also discussed.
