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

introduction

methodsA facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from February to April 2020 at DMRH. A structured questionnaire was used to gather demographic and clinical data. Wound swab was collected from inpatients and then inoculated on blood agar and mannitol salt agar. The presence of MRSA and VRSA was determined using the cefoxitin (30 μg) antibiotic disk diffusion and vancomycin E-test methods, respectively. The data were analyzed using SPSS 20. Data were analyzed using bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. A

resultsA total of 242 wound cases were enrolled and the majority of them were males 172 (71.1%). Among the total enrolled cases,
