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

Acinetobacter baumannii is an important opportunistic pathogen, usually associated with immunocompromised individuals with a prolonged period of stay in a hospital. Currently, the incidence of multi-drug resistant A. baumannii (MDR-AB) and extensively drug-resistant A. baumannii (XDR-AB) is increasing rapidly in Thailand, mirroring the trend worldwide. Novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of A. baumannii infection using bacteriophages are being evaluated, and the use of phage-derived peptides is being tested as alternative approach to fighting infection. In this study, we isolated and determined the biological features of a lytic A. baumannii phage called vB_AbaAut_ChT04 (vChT04). The vChT04 phage was classified as a member of the family Autographiviridae of the class Caudoviricetes. It showed a short latent period (10 min) and a large burst size (280 PFU cell
