Effect of Antibiotic Resistance of Pathogens on Initial Antibiotic Therapy for Patients With Cholangitis.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Objectives Considering that pathogens resistant to initial antibiotic therapies for cholangitis can affect mortality rates, appropriate initial empiric antibiotic therapy is important. However, evidence regarding the influence of pathogens resistant to initial antibiotics in patients with cholangitis who have undergone early endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is limited, and the conditions in several cases can improve with early ERCP even when pathogens resistant to initial antibiotics are detected on time. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the influence of pathogens resistant to initial antibiotics on the course of cholangitis in patients undergoing early ERCP. Materials and methods Patients (n=266) with positive blood or bile culture results treated with early ERCP were divided into those with cultures that were resistant to the initial antibiotics (antibiotic-resistant group; n=66; 24.8%) and those with cultures that were sensitive to the initial antibiotics (antibiotic-sensitive group; n=200; 75.2%). The duration of hospitalization, in-hospital mortality rates due to cholangitis, rates of increased disease severity, and complications during hospitalization were studied. Results
