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

backgroundAcinetobacter baumannii is a major pathogen in hospitals, causing a notable rise in bloodstream infections among inpatients. Its growing resistance to multiple drugs limits treatment options. This study aims to examine the antibacterial effects of gallium nitrate [Ga(NO

methods40 strains of A. baumannii with different antimicrobials susceptibility patterns were isolated from bloodstream infections. The in vitro antibacterial activity of Ga(NO

resultsGa(NO

conclusionThis study sheds light on the antibacterial mechanisms of Ga(NO
