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

Resistance to the last treatment option for gonorrhoea, ceftriaxone is a major public health concern globally, which poses a serious threat to the currently recommended ceftriaxone monotherapy. We elucidate the emergence, evolution and temporal spread of ceftriaxone-resistant gonococcal strains in China, using whole-genome sequencing of 357 ceftriaxone-resistant isolates from eight provinces during 2002-2022. We describe distinct differences between ceftriaxone-resistant gonococcal strains in China and global isolates. The resistance levels for the 357 isolates for cefixime, azithromycin, ciprofloxacin, benzylpenicillin, tetracycline, and spectinomycin were 92.4%, 17.0%, 100%, 84.9%, 92.7%, and 0.8%, respectively. Before 2019, ceftriaxone-resistant isolates in China mainly harboured non-mosaic
