Moraxella Catarrhalis Infrequently Cultured from Middle Ear Fluid of Children with Acute Otitis Media.
Article in The Pediatric infectious disease journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
We compared the distribution of organisms in the nasopharynx and the middle ear fluid in 164 episodes of acute otitis media in children 6-35 months of age. In contrast to Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae , Moraxella catarrhalis is isolated from the middle ear in only 11% of episodes with nasopharyngeal colonization with this organism.
