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

backgroundPneumococcal disease is still considered a global problem. With the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) serotype epidemiology changed, but antimicrobial resistance persists constituting a serious problem. The current study aimed to determine the serotype distribution and the antimicrobial susceptibility of recent MATERIALS AND

methodsFrom January 2017 to December 2022 we evaluated 116 nonduplicate

resultsAmong the 116 isolates, 31% were recognized as invasive pneumococcal strains, while 69% were non-invasive. The isolates tested belonged to 25 different serotypes. The most prevalent serotypes were 11A (10.3%), and 35B (10.3%), followed by 3 (9.5%), 15A (7.8%), 25F (6.9%), 19A (5.3%), 35F (5.3%), and others (44.6%). The coverage rates of PCV13 and the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23) were 26.7% and 57.8%, respectively. PCV13 and PPSV23 serotypes decreased between 2017 - 2019 and 2020 - 2022, with a parallel increase in the non-vaccine types. Resistance rates to erythromycin, clindamycin, trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole, penicillin, levofloxacin, and ceftriaxone, were 40.5%, 21.6%, 13.8%, 12.1%, 3.4%, and 0%, respectively. All isolates were susceptible to vancomycin, linezolid, and daptomycin. MDR was observed among 36 (31%)
