Management of immunocompromised and infected animals.
Review in Methods in microbiology, 2002. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This chapter discusses the management of immunocompromised and infected animals. The microbiological quality of laboratory animals is a direct result of colony management practices and monitoring provides an after-the-fact assessment of the adequacy of those practices. Monitoring is, therefore, of greatest value in connection with the maintenance of animals in isolation systems where vigorous microbiological control is applied. In addition to constructive measures, an appropriate management system is necessary for the prevention of infections, as well as for their detection and control. It is a major task for the management of an animal facility to understand the way micro-organisms might be introduced or spread under the specific conditions given. The management of all animal facilities in an institution is best centralized. This warrants that all information dealing with the purchase of animals, the use of experimental materials and equipment and the performance of animal experiments flows through one office. This reduces the opportunity for the failures of communication. Centralized management can best establish comprehensive monitoring programs to evaluate important risk factors, such as animals and biological materials, before they are introduced into a facility.
