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

Recurrent cystitis (RC) has rarely been studied; its management varies and research on a holistic approach of these patients is scarce. We attempted to characterize patients suffering from RC and investigated their current care pathways, aiming to offer customized and autonomous management. In this paper, we present a descriptive, single-center, cross-sectional study of women presenting with RC at an infectious disease (ID) clinic. A questionnaire was developed and was completed by ID physicians during patient visits. From October 2016 to January 2019, 202 women were included (mean age 59 years). Sexual intercourse, stress and diarrhoea/digestive symptoms were reported as trigger factors by 35%, 34% and 19% of patients, respectively. A majority (54%) were at risk for complications and were those more exposed to inappropriate antibiotic prescriptions. In total, 56% of women suffered from more than 10 episodes/year and 48% suffered from relapses, mainly due to
