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

contextManagement of urinary tract infections (UTIs) is caused by antibiotic resistance uropathogens.

aimThis study aimed to determine the important uropathogens and their resistance to first-line urinary tract antimicrobial agents. SETTINGS AND

designThe region of Aseer, Southern Saudi Arabia, between 2013 and 2016. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 1506 isolates were recovered from the urine samples of patients that were identified and tested against nine first-line UTI antimicrobial agents. Laboratory analysis was done as per the standard methods. Confirmation of bacterial identity and antimicrobial susceptibility assay was achieved by the VITEK 2 automated system. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software version 21.0 was used for the statistical analysis.

resultsThe dominant uropathogens were

conclusionsThe present study recommends the use of fosfomycin, cefoxitin, nitrofurantoin, and amoxicillin/clavulanate as the first choice UTIs treatment given their relatively high
