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

Objective: Design: Retrospective observational study. Setting: The Royal Melbourne Hospital (RMH), a 570-bed tertiary center in Victoria, Australia. Methods: Short-read whole genome sequencing was performed on 75 out of 137 Results: Eighty-five (62.1%) of the 137 cases were defined as healthcare-associated from epidemiological data. On genome sequencing, 33 different multi-locus sequence type (MLST) subtypes were identified, with changes in population structure compared to the 2015-16 period. Risk factors for CDI were present in 130 (94.9%) cases, including 108 (78.8%) on antibiotics, 86 (62.8%) on acid suppression therapy, and 25 (18.2) on chemotherapy. Conclusion: In both study periods, most
