Carbapenem-Resistant Organisms Isolated in Surgical Site Infections in Benin: A Public Health Problem.
Article in Tropical medicine and infectious disease, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
An alarming worldwide increase in antimicrobial resistance is complicating the management of surgical site infections (SSIs), especially in low-middle income countries. The main objective of this study was to describe the pattern of carbapenem-resistant bacteria in hospitalized patients and to highlight the challenge of their detection in Benin. We collected pus samples from patients suspected to have SSIs in hospitals. After bacterial identification by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, antimicrobial susceptibility was performed according to the Kirby-Bauer method. Carbapenem-resistant strains were characterized using, successively, the Modified Hodge Test (MHT), the RESIST-5 O.K.N.V.I: a multiplex lateral flow and finally the polymerase chain reaction. Six isolates were resistant to three tested carbapenems and almost all antibiotics we tested but remained susceptible to amikacin. Four (66.7%) of them harbored some ESBL genes (bla
