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

Background: Method: A total of 1000 samples were analysed in the study. Antibiotic resistance profiles of the isolates were determined using Kirby Bauer disk diffusion method. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequencing were simultaneously used to detect the consensus region of 16S rRNA. Genetic relatedness of the isolates was determined using restriction patterns from ALU 1 digest and random amplified polymorphic DNA. Results: Out of the 192 Conclusions: Thus, study shows that there is high prevalence of MDRPA and high degree of genetic relatedness among the MDRPA isolates circulating in Nsukka area.
