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 failures in Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) infection diagnosis leave more than half of cases unidentified. In this report, urine and vaginal discharge samples were analyzed by wet mount, culture examination, and real-time PCR by Allplex™ (Seegene®) kit, in a population assisted by the Brazilian Public Health System. From 747 samples, 2.81% were positive for TV in wet mount and culture, and 3.88% by Allplex™. Samples kept at - 80 ºC for 22 months did not impair the PCR technique. The sensitivity for wet mount, culture, and Allplex™ was 72, 100, and 100%, respectively. Allplex™ technique showed highest detection of TV.
