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: Objective: This study aimed to systematically review and synthesize data on the prevalence of macrolide resistance in Methods: The study conducted a systematic search of the Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases. Studies have reported the proportion of macrolide-resistant Results: In total, 223 studies from 76 countries were included. The pooled prevalence of resistance to erythromycin, clarithromycin, and azithromycin were 57.3, 52.6, and 57.9%, respectively. Significant heterogeneity was observed across studies (I Conclusion: This study emphasizes the high prevalence of macrolide resistance in Systematic review registration: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?RecordID=557756, CRD42024557756.
