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

We describe a pediatric case of recurrent skin infections caused by a Panton-Valentine leukocidin and exfoliative toxin E double-positive methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus clonal complex 188 clone. Most of the patient's family members were infected with the same strain, and intrafamilial transmission was strongly suspected. Decolonization procedures were not effective.
