Mycoplasma pneumoniae MLST detected in the upsurge of pneumonia during the 2023 to 2024 winter season in the Netherlands.

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
During the winter 2023-2024, an upsurge of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M.pneumoniae) was noted in the Netherlands. To investigate the distribution of M.pneumoniae sequence types from different patient populations and to explore genotypic macrolide resistance which is common in East Asia but not (yet) in Europe. M.pneumoniae positive throat/nasal samples from participatory respiratory surveillance, patients visiting general practitioners with an acute respiratory infection including community acquired pneumonia (CAP) and hospitalised patients with CAP were included, representing different disease severity. The M.pneumoniae were typed with multilocus sequence typing and the 23 S rRNA region was sequenced to determine macrolide resistance markers. In total, 153 M.pneumoniae were sequenced, six sequence types (STs) and only one bacterium with macrolide resistance marker were detected. No link between STs or bacterial load (PCR cycle threshold) and source population of M.pneumoniae was detected. In the Netherlands, the M.pneumoniae upsurge in 2023-2024 existed of multiple commonly found STs. No link between ST and severity of illness was detected. Macrolide resistance remained sporadic.
