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

backgroundEnterocolitis and gastroenteritis remain major health problems, particularly in children living in developing countries. Intestinal protozoa, such as MATERIAL AND

methodsA cross-sectional, retrospective study was conducted at a national, tertiary-referral government hospital, in Jakarta. Of the 111 retrieved medical records from hospitalized patients with enterocolitis and gastroenteritis, for which parasitology feces were examined, 54 fecal samples (48.6%) were still available in the parasitology laboratory storage. All fecal samples underwent the following tests: 1) direct stool examination, after staining with 1% Lugol's solution, and using the water-ether concentration method; 2) modified acid-fast staining for coccidian parasites; 3) Jones' culture medium to detect

resultsLargely, patients (44.1%) were from the cohort of young children ≤5 years old, followed by adults aged 19-60 years old (24.3%). Both cohorts exhibited polyparasitism. Intestinal parasites were detected in 17 out of the 54 samples (31.4%). These included 6 (11.1%), 2 (3.7%),5 (9.2%), 3 (5.5%), 2 (3.7%), and 1 (1.8%) samples that were positive for
