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: Healthcare students could harbour multidrug-resistant (MDR) and methicillin-resistant Objective: This study determined the frequency and risk of nasal Methods: This comparative cross-sectional study collected nasal samples from 02 January 2024 to 31 July 2024 from healthcare students at Ahmadu Bello University, Nigeria, which were processed for Results: A total of 251 students participated, including 126 (50.2%) men and 125 (49.8%) women (aged 17-44 years). The nasal carriage of Conclusion: High levels of nasal MRSA and MDR- What this study adds: To our knowledge, this is the first epidemiological study on the multiple antimicrobial resistance indices of nasal
