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

A 71-year-old female presented to the emergency department with worsening dyspnea, dry cough, malaise, weight loss, fever, chills, and diaphoresis for one week. The patient had been hospitalized four weeks prior with right knee methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bursitis and was initially treated with IV vancomycin but was switched to IV daptomycin at the time of discharge for convenience of dosing. On presentation to the ED, vitals were normal. Physical examination revealed bilateral scattered rhonchi and crepitations. Chest X-ray revealed new patchy bilateral interstitial and airspace opacities concerning for multifocal pneumonia. Labs were pertinent for mild peripheral eosinophilia. CT chest revealed moderate diffuse ground glass opacities involving both lungs, with subpleural predominance and some areas of septal thickening seen as well. Daptomycin-induced pneumonitis was suspected, and empiric antibiotics were discontinued. The patient subsequently underwent fiberoptic bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and transbronchial lung biopsy. BAL fluid showed leukocytosis and eosinophilia of 25 mm
