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: Although methicillin-resistant Methods: Serial cross-sectional sampling of MRSA isolates occurred at a tertiary care hospital between 2010 and 2019. Community-onset MRSA was prospectively isolated from patients presenting to the emergency department with acute skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), while hospital-onset MRSA was sampled before (2010), during (2015-2017), and after (2019) this community collection period. MRSA transmission was assessed using a joint application of epidemiological approaches and phylodynamic analysis of whole-genome sequences. Results: After whole-genome sequencing on community and hospital MRSA isolates, phylogenetic analysis revealed 2 major clades distinguished by clonal complex (CC) CC8/t008 and CC5/t002 Conclusions: MRSA transmission in hospital settings was introduced from strains with ancestral origins in community settings. Although community-onset MRSA transmission appears sustained with limited influence from hospital strains, more comprehensive surveillance is required to quantify this relationship. Nosocomial MRSA outbreak prevention strategies should target unique aspects of the community in addition to the hospital, particularly hot spots, risk behaviors, and strain reservoirs.
