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

backgroundContamination of the hospital environment with multi-resistant (MDR)

methodsSamples of inanimate surfaces and air were taken using a premoistened swab (0.9% sodium chloride) and spontaneous air sedimentation, respectively. The clinical isolates were recovered from infected neonates. The isolates (environmental and clinical) were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight and the resistance profile was calculated using the disk diffusion agar technique.

resultsIn total, 181 isolates were obtained, 93 from (surfaces), 18 from the air, and 70 clinical samples.
