Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: A future Methods: We enrolled 63 patients with cellulitis and 26 with invasive beta hemolytic streptococci infection, using a multiplexed assay to measure immunoglobulin G against Strep A vaccine candidate antigens, including: streptolysin O (SLO), deoxyribonuclease B (DNB), group A carbohydrate (GAC), C5a peptidase (ScpA), cell envelope proteinase (SpyCEP), and adhesion and division protein (SpyAD). Responses in the invasive cohort were used to predict the infecting etiology in the cellulitis cohort. Results: Of 41 patients with cellulitis and paired serological samples, 68.3% had evidence of beta hemolytic streptococci infection by conventional anti-SLO and/or anti-DNB criteria. A positive serological response to at least 1 of the tested antigens was seen in 78.0% of the cellulitis cohort. Individually, anti-SLO (58.5%), anti-SpyAD (46.3%), and anti-ScpA (39.0%) were the most common. Based on principal component analysis, increases in these 3 antibodies, without responses to DNB, GAC, and SpyCEP characterized Conclusions: SDSE appears to be the predominant cause of lower limb cellulitis. Effective Strep A vaccines incorporating antigens that provide additional cross protection against SDSE may prevent a significant burden of lower limb cellulitis.
