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

Epidemic form of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis was reported from different geographical locations of the world, during 2023. Since the viral agents are well established behind acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis outbreaks, this study aims to investigate the bacterial agent associated with the acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis outbreak that occurred in the eastern Uttar Pradesh region of India. The bacterial infection was investigated in 91 conjunctival swabs collected from acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis patients during the outbreak. Total nucleic acid was extracted from the ocular swab collected from acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis patients, followed by the detection of human adenovirus and pan-enterovirus using PCR. Further, the isolation of bacteria was performed using these clinical samples. Characterization of the bacterial isolates was done using the VITEK-2 system and 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing. Of 64 conjunctival swabs positive for coxsackievirus-A24 samples, two clinical specimens showed bacterial growth. Both isolates were identified as Ochrobactrum anthropi via VITEK-2 with 93% and 95% confidence levels. While 16S ribosomal RNA analysis characterized the isolates as Ochrobactrum intermedium. Ochrobactrum intermedium is an emerging multidrug-resistant bacterium and is reported to cause a variety of clinical infections. This study first reported the Ochrobactrum intermedium infection in two coxsackievirus-A24 infected acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis patients.
