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
Estimating the number of illnesses caused by foodborne pathogens is critical for allocating resources and prioritizing interventions. We estimated the number of illnesses, hospitalizations, and deaths in the United States caused by 7 major foodborne pathogens by using surveillance data and other sources, adjusted for underreporting and underdiagnosis. Campylobacter spp., Clostridium perfringens, invasive Listeria monocytogenes, norovirus, nontyphoidal Salmonella serotypes, and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli caused ≈9.9 million (90% credible interval [CrI] 5.9-15.4 million) domestically acquired foodborne illnesses in 2019. Together with Toxoplasma gondii, those pathogens caused 53,300 (90% CrI 35,700-74,500) hospitalizations and 931 (90% CrI 530‒1,460) deaths. Norovirus caused most illnesses (≈5.5 million illnesses, 22,400 hospitalizations), followed by Campylobacter spp. (1.9 million illnesses, 13,000 hospitalizations) and nontyphoidal Salmonella serotypes (1.3 million illnesses, 12,500 hospitalizations). Salmonella infection was the leading cause of death (n = 238). Foodborne illness estimates can inform policy and direct food safety interventions that reduce those illnesses.
