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

To determine the bacterial pathogens in chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) & the antibiotic susceptibility patterns of isolates among patients. A total of 400 patients clinically diagnosed with CSOM were interviewed &middle-ear effusion samples were collected using sterile swabs. All bacterial isolates were identified by conventional microbiological methods. Antibiotic susceptibility patterns of the isolates were determined by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (30.25%) were the most prevalent bacteria isolated, followed by S. aureus (MSSA) (18.5%) & MRSA (8.25%). The most effective antibiotic for treatment of bacterial CSOM was amikacin & ciprofloxacin. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference in bacterial infestations among CSOM patients & the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the bacterial isolates based on age (
