Capnocytophaga zoonotic infections: a 10-year retrospective study (the French CANCAN study).

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
Zoonotic species of Capnocytophaga genus belong to the oral microbiota of dogs and cats. They may be responsible for serious human infections, mainly after animal bites, with a high mortality rate. In France, only few cases have been reported and no multicenter study has been conducted. Our aim was to describe the French epidemiology of Capnocytophaga zoonosis. We conducted a multicenter (21 centers) retrospective non-interventional, observational study in France describing the epidemiology of Capnocytophaga zoonosis (C. canimorsus, C. cynodegmi, C. canis) over 10 years with regard to clinical and bacteriological data. From 2009 to 2018, 44 cases of Capnocytophaga zoonotic infections were described (C. canimorsus, n = 41; C. cynodegmi, n = 3). We observed an increase (2.5 times) in the number of cases over the study period (from the first to the last 5 years of the study). The most frequent clinical presentations were sepsis (n = 37), skin and soft tissue infections (n = 12), meningitis (n = 8), osteoarticular infections (n = 6), and endocarditis (n = 2). About one-third of patients with sepsis went into septic shock. Mortality rate was 11%. Mortality and meningitis rates were significantly higher for alcoholic patients (p = 0.044 and p = 0.006, respectively). Other comorbidities included smoking, splenectomy, diabetes mellitus, and immunosuppressive therapy are associated to zoonotic Capnocytophaga infection. Eighty-two percent of cases involved contact with dogs, mostly included bites (63%). Despite all isolates were susceptible to the amoxicillin-clavulanic acid combination, three of them were resistant to amoxicillin.
