Genetic Diversity among Methicillin-Resistant
Review 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 6 papers.
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
1.
backgroundMethicillin-resistant
methodsElectronic and manual intensive literature searches were conducted between 2002 and 2020, addressing issues directly related to patients and published in the English language were selected. 3.
resultsThe literature search retrieved a total of 2217 articles and abstracts of 27 articles. The search yielded a total of 24 articles on genotyping of MRSA in Malaysia. The study found that MRSA strains were mostly genetically related and resulted in the predominant MRSA clones that caused active infections. Thirty-six different sequence types (ST) were recorded. The highest rates of STs detected were ST239 (52.6%), ST1 (47.4%), and ST22 (42.1%). The majority of studies showed that both SCCmec types III and IV were the most common SCCm type in Malaysia, followed by SCCmec type V (57.9%). 4.
conclusionsBoth Brazilian (ST 239 IIIA) and Hungarian (ST 239-III) MRSA strains were detected in Malaysia. PFGE remains the best method for comparing MRSA strains. However, whole-genome sequencing has a promising chance to replace PFGE in the future.
