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

purposeThis study aimed to provide compelling evidence of anti-staphylococcal beta-lactam use for methicillin-susceptible MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrospectively collected data on patients with MSSA BSI who were admitted to two academic tertiary-care hospitals from 2010 to 2018. Only patients who received nafcillin, cefazolin, vancomycin, or teicoplanin as definitive therapy were included. The primary outcome was 28-day mortality. To perform unbiased comparisons between both treatments, we used inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis.

resultsA total of 359 patients were divided into two groups based on the definitive therapy used: beta-lactams (n=203), including nafcillin or cefazolin; and glycopeptides (n=156), including vancomycin or teicoplanin. In the IPTW analysis, glycopeptides were associated with significantly increased odds of 28-day mortality (adjusted odds ratio, 3.37; 95% confidence interval, 1.71-6.61;

conclusionDefinitive therapy with beta-lactams in patients with MSSA BSI was associated with lower 28-day mortality compared to definitive therapy with glycopeptides.
