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

Vibrio alginolyticus is a facultatively anaerobic, Gram-negative bacillus that is a common component of marine flora. Infections caused by Vibrio alginolyticus are rare and typically occur following exposure to seawater or marine animals. This report details the clinical presentation and follow-up of a 65-year-old immunocompetent male who developed a wound infection due to Vibrio alginolyticus. Advanced diagnostic tools, such as MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, can enhance the identification of these bacteria. Sport clinicians need to recognise Vibrio infections in seawater-contaminated wounds, as infections may be serious and the therapeutic approach may differ from conventional treatments.
