Genomic analysis of the first cases of extensively drug-resistant, travel-related
Article in IJID regions, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Objectives: To highlight the importance of molecular testing in characterizing extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Methods: Our study reports three travel-related typhoid fever cases caused by XDR Results: Laboratory testing revealed resistance to all first-line antibiotics (i.e ampicillin, chloramphenicol, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole), as well as to quinolones and third-generation cephalosporins, leading to a change in the patients' therapy to the use of carbapenems. Classical MLST (cMLST) revealed that the strains were of sequence type 1 (ST1) and the core genome sequence (cgWGS) analysis closely clustered our strains with internationally reported strains from Pakistan, India, and the UK. The strains were found to carry a Conclusions: Our report alerts clinicians to the use of appropriate empirical treatments in such scenarios, and highlights the significance of the global spread of XDR
