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: To determine the etiology of cervico-vaginal infections by cytobacteriology and the efficacy of qPCR for the diagnosis of sensitive strains such as Methodology: This prospective cross-sectional study was performed between January and September 2021 in 346 women who were examined for cervico-vaginal infection at the Hôpital Principal de Dakar (HPD). Cytobacteriological (direct examination, agar culture) and molecular analyses were performed. Results: Vaginal flora imbalances predominated, with a rate of 72.3%. The proportion of type IV vaginal flora was 46.5%. Of the 199 germs isolated, Conclusion: The methods applied enabled us to identify the pathogens that cause cervicovaginal infections. The results suggest that qPCR may be an alternative, at least for the diagnosis of
