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.

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
Tunnelled dialysis catheters continue to be a choice in several patients as hemodialysis access. According to Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative guidelines, its handling implies disinfection, that can be performed using chlorhexidine solutions. Theoretically, these solutions have bactericidal capacity at concentrations greater than 0.12%. We present a curious situation of failure of the antiseptic process due to contamination of the chlorhexidine solution 4% of aqueous base. In this hemodialysis clinic, three cases of infections by the bacteria
