Case report: Thoracic vertebral abscess caused by Salmonella via diagnosed next-generation sequencing.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 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
The genus Salmonella consists of Gram-negative bacteria with various serotypes. It commonly causes bacterial infections that affect the intestines. Infection can occur in humans and animals through the ingestion of contaminated food or water, or through contact with infected animals or environments. Complications commonly include intestinal hemorrhage and perforation, though vertebral osteomyelitis is rarely observed. Therefore, in patients with spinal cord abscesses, The genus Salmonella is typically not considered a likely pathogen, especially in the absence of typical symptoms. In this case, the limited information provided by traditional cultivation methods, particularly under the influence of antibiotics. However, next-generation sequencing (NGS) unexpectedly detected Salmonella, which assisted in formulating the final treatment plan. This underscores the role and clinical value of NGS in pathogen identification.
