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

There is an unmet need for a point-of-care test that is accurate, affordable, and simple to diagnose bacterial vaginosis, the most common cause of vaginal symptoms among women. Bacterial vaginosis leaves patients with undesirable vaginal discharge, malodor, and discomfort. Currently, the diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis is inaccurate and complex, leading to high rates of misdiagnosis. Inaccurate diagnoses are unsafe as bacterial vaginosis increases the risks of acquiring sexually transmitted infections as well as the likelihood of miscarriages. To date, the most commonly identified bacteria associated with bacterial vaginosis is
