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

objectivesMaintaining cleanrooms in a hospital is a key part of preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). The aim of this work was to verify the effectiveness of anti-epidemic measures to ensure air quality in cleanrooms in a tertiary care hospital.

methodsThe study was based on the application of anti-epidemic measures and verification of their effectiveness by regular indoor air monitoring between the years 2014-2019. Monitoring was performed according to a recommended procedure based on European standards for cleanrooms.

resultsThe results demonstrate a reduction in the number of airborne particles and the number of colonies, as well as the elimination of fungi and conditioned pathogens in air samples.

conclusionsThe authors emphasize the importance of established anti-epidemic measures and regular monitoring for the prevention of HAIs.
