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

objectiveThis study presents the whole-genome sequence of Staphylococcus aureus strain MD02, isolated from a diabetic foot ulcer at a tertiary hospital in southwestern Uganda. The objective was to characterize the genome to understand the isolate's resistance and virulence potential. DATA DESCRIPTION: Genomic DNA of S. aureus strain MD02 was extracted and sequenced using the Illumina platform, generating high-quality paired-end reads with an average genome coverage of 32.6×. Quality control was performed with FastQC and reads were trimmed using Trimmomatic. De novo assembly was carried out using SPAdes, resulting in a draft genome of 2,815,980 bp assembled into 68 contigs with a GC content of 32.5%. Quality analysis of the genome revealed 98% completeness, and 2.48% contamination and the closest type strain to our isolate was Staphylococcus aureus (GCA_000330825.2) with an average nucleotide identity of 97.14%% and genome coverage of 89.38% confirming species level identity and close relatedness. Annotation using NCBI Prokaryotic Genome Annotation Pipeline identified 2,701 protein coding genes.
