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

Background Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are emerging as clinically significant pathogens. A high proportion of methicillin resistance along with intense biofilm-producing ability render CoNS-related infections challenging to treat. This study was undertaken to investigate the mechanisms of methicillin resistance, identify genes encoding for virulence, and their association with clinical outcomes among clinical isolates of Staphylococci in a tertiary care center. Methods A total of 203 clinical isolates were included in this study. Susceptibility to various antibiotics was determined by the disc diffusion method. Methicillin resistance was screened using cefoxitin disc,
