Non-Antibiotic Prevention of Catheter Mechanic and Septic Complications in Patients with Long-Term Indwelling Catheters: a Crossover Prospective Study Involving L-Methionine.
Article in Maedica, 2024. 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
Bacterial antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health concern in modern society caused by bacterial changes that impair the efficacy of infection-treating drugs. Non-antibiotic techniques are critical for controlling the antimicrobial resistance concern because they provide a means of alleviating symptoms without needing antibiotics. This prospective study aims to determine whether administering L-methionine reduces mechanical and bacterial problems associated with long-term indwelling urinary catheters. The trial focused on administering only L-methionine for a three-month period to patients who had long-term bladder catheters, either indwelling or suprapubic. The catheter exchange rates were categorized according to acute urinary tract infection, macroscopic haematuria and symptomatic urinary tract infection. During the time of inclusion, catheter-related incidents were recorded. The primary incident observed was acute urine retention caused by catheter obstruction in 63.6.
