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: Diabetic foot infections (DFIs) are commonly associated with antibiotic overuse. Empiric DFI treatment often includes coverage for Methods: This multicenter, retrospective cohort included hospitalized patients with DFI from 2013 through 2020 who were age ≥18 years; diabetes mellitus diagnosis; and DFI based on Results: Two hundred ninety-two patients were included. The median age was 61 (interquartile range [IQR], 53-69) years; the majority were men (201 [69%]) and White (163 [56%]). The most commonly isolated organisms were methicillin-susceptible Conclusions: PsA DFI is uncommon, but most patients receive empiric antipseudomonal antibiotics. Empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics are warranted given the frequency of mixed infections, but patient-specific risk factors should be considered before adding antipseudomonal coverage.
