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

introductionCommunity-acquired methicillin-resistant MATERIAL AND

methodsA retrospective model of cases (SSTIs with isolation of MRSA) and controls (SSTIs without isolation of MRSA) was used. We included 166 SSTI episodes treated in two hospitals, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, between October 2014 and January 2018. Samples were taken by puncture through healthy skin and the material obtained was sown in usual culture media. For bacterial identification, mass spectrometry and automated nephelometry were used. Methicillin-resistance was confirmed by disc-diffusion with cefoxitin discs. Data on living habits with CF and classic risk factors for SSTIs by MRSA were collected.

resultsPatients with SSTIs due to MRSA live more with CF (crude OR 1.9; [1.1-3.7] p<0.05) and tend to live more closely with them (crude OR 1.8; [0.99-3.43] p=0.08). In the multivariate analysis, those who live closely with CF have 1.3 times more chances of SSTIs due to MRSA (adjusted OR 2.32; [1.12-4.78] p<0.02).

conclusionsWe conclude that there is an association between human MRSA SSTIs and living with CF.
