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: Acute otitis media (AOM) is a leading cause of healthcare visits, antibiotic prescription and complications in children aged under 5 years. Following the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs), non-typeable Objectives: To determine the frequency and characteristics of the pathogens related to AOM in Vietnam in children ≤5 years old. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study performed at the Vietnam National Children's Hospital from October 2021 to December 2023 in children ≤5 years old diagnosed with acute suppurative otitis media. Clinical features of the children were described. Pathogens of interest were identified by culture or real-time PCR (rtPCR). The antibiotic susceptibility profiles of Results: In total, 482 children ≤5 years old were included, of which 70.8% were ≤2 years old and 61% had an history of AOM. The most frequent bacteria isolated were Conclusions: The pathogens most frequently associated with AOM in this study were in line with previous findings. Many isolates were resistant to commonly given oral antibiotics. These results can inform decision-making on AOM prevention and treatment strategies in Vietnam.
