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

Salmonellosis is one of the most common causes of diarrhea, affecting 1/10 of the global population. Salmonellosis outbreaks (SO) pose a severe threat to the healthcare systems of developing regions. To elucidate the patterns of SO in China, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis encompassing 1,134 reports across 74 years, involving 89,050 patients and 270 deaths. A rising trend of SO reports has been observed since the 1970s, with most outbreaks occurring east of the Hu line, especially in coastal and populated regions. It is estimated to have an overall attack rate of 36.66% (95% CI, 33.88-39.45%), and antimicrobial resistance towards quinolone (49.51%) and beta-lactam (73.76%) remains high. Furthermore, we developed an online website, the Chinese Salmonellosis Outbreak Database (CSOD), for visual presentation and data-sharing purposes. This study indicated that healthcare-associated SO required further attention, and our study served as a foundational step in pursuing outbreak intervention and prediction.
