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

Acute bronchitis is a self-limiting disease, characterized by mild constitutional symptoms and a cough lasting two to three weeks. The disease usually occurs secondary to viruses; therefore, only symptomatic and supportive care is advised for the patients. Despite the recommended guidelines, most patients are prescribed antibiotics. Here, we present a case of a 38-year-old female who presented to the hospital with a sudden onset of severe epigastric pain. The patient recently started a 10-day course of doxycycline for acute bronchitis. She was admitted, evaluated, and diagnosed with doxycycline-induced esophagitis, and managed accordingly. This report highlights how excessive use of antibiotics is leading to adverse effects, antibiotic resistance, increased health care costs, and invasive testing. It also emphasizes the importance of antibiotic stewardship.
