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: Acute uncomplicated cystitis (AUC) is a urinary tract infection and is generally treated using antimicrobial therapy. Methods: This retrospective cohort study reviewed the records of patients with AUC treated at the urology department of Minami Cooperative Hospital between April 2016 and December 2020. Effectiveness was defined as clinical improvement. Results: The study cohort of 730 patients had a median age of 65.5 years (interquartile range, 57-78 years) and 23.2% were aged <55 years. Conclusions: BL/BLI combinations had the highest effectiveness for the treatment of AUC.
