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

Background: In September 2018, Methods: We aimed to investigate BCC infections/colonizations associated with MWS. Hospitals, laboratories, and public health services were informed that BCC isolates should be sent to the RKI. These isolates were typed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) including development of an ad hoc core genome MLST (cgMLST) scheme. Results: In total, 36 patients from 6 hospitals met the case definition, the last patient in November 2018. Twenty-nine isolates from 26 of these patients were available for typing. WGS analysis revealed 2 distinct cgMLST clusters. Cluster 1 ( Conclusions: The combined clinical, epidemiological, and microbiological investigation, including whole-genome analysis, allowed for uncovering a supraregional BCC outbreak in health care settings.
