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

The COVID-19 pandemic has made it clear: sharing and exchanging data among research institutions is crucial in order to efficiently respond to global health threats. This can be facilitated by defining health data models based on interoperability standards. In Germany, a national effort is in progress to create common data models using international healthcare IT standards. In this context, collaborative work on a data set module for microbiology is of particular importance as the WHO has declared antimicrobial resistance one of the top global public health threats that humanity is facing. In this article, we describe how we developed a common model for microbiology data in an interdisciplinary collaborative effort and how we make use of the standard HL7 FHIR and terminologies such as SNOMED CT or LOINC to ensure syntactic and semantic interoperability. The use of international healthcare standards qualifies our data model to be adopted beyond the environment where it was first developed and used at an international level.
