Coagulase-negative Staphylococci: a rare cause of urinary tract infections in children with consequences on clinical practice.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Isolation of coagulase-negative Staphylococci (CoNS) in urine cultures of children is usually considered a contamination of the sample, except for Staphylococcus saprophyticus in older children. The aim of this study was to describe the characteristics of children in whom CoNS was considered a true urinary pathogen. The medical records of all children aged 0 to 18 years at Shaare Zedek Medical Center between 2013 and 2020 who were diagnosed with CoNS urinary tract infection (UTI) were reviewed for demographic, clinical, and laboratory data. CoNS were identified as the causative organism of UTIs in 30 children, none of whom was bacteremic. Male sex, younger age, and infection with non-S. saprophyticus CoNS were associated with higher risk of pyelonephritis in comparison to cystitis. Eleven (37%) children had previously known or newly diagnosed underlying urinary tract abnormalities. All patients recovered. CoNS were found to be an uncommon urinary pathogen among children but can cause pyelonephritis, especially in young children and in males.Conclusion: The finding of CoNS pyelonephritis requires thorough search for urinary abnormalities.
