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/aim: Materials and methods: Active prospective surveillance studies were conducted, and environmental samples, including saline, antiseptic, and antibiotic solutions, injectors, arterial blood gas syringes, tap water, and hand soap, were collected from wards to determine the source of the outbreak. An arbitrary-primed polymerase chain reaction (AP-PCR) genotyping method was used to determine the clonal relationship between the isolates. Results: All the samples were cultured, and Conclusion: It was concluded that these contaminated arterial blood gas syringes caused the
