Assessing the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the incidence, clinical presentation, and clindamycin resistance rates of
Article in IJID regions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Objectives: Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of Results: The global incidence of GAS infections in the pre-pandemic and post-pandemic periods were 2.62 and 2.92 cases per 10.000 hospital admissions, whereas for iGAS cases, they were 1.85 and 2.34. However, a transient decrease was observed during the pandemic period: 1.07 and 0.78 per 10.000 hospital admissions. There was a significant decrease in GAS and iGAS infections during the pandemic period compared with the pre-pandemic incidence ( Conclusions: Our study revealed a temporary reduction in iGAS infections, followed by resurgence in the post-pandemic period. The observed rise in clindamycin resistance emphasizes the importance of monitoring local resistance patterns for tailored treatment.
