Prevalence, Associated Factors, and Appropriateness of Empirical Treatment of Trichomoniasis, Bacterial Vaginosis, and Vulvovaginal Candidiasis among Women with Vaginitis.
Article in Microbiology spectrum, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Trichomoniasis (TV), bacterial vaginosis (BV), and vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) are the most common causes of vaginitis. This study investigated the prevalence of these diagnoses, their associated factors, and the appropriateness of the empirical treatment. From March 25, 2019, to June 17, 2022, 429 women with symptoms or signs of vaginitis were enrolled in a hospital in northern Taiwan with 438 episodes of vaginitis. Vaginal swabs were collected for Gram's staining,
