Successful clearance of persistent
Article in ASM case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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: Deep-seated Case Summary: A 33-year-old male was admitted to the medical intensive care unit with suspected MSSA community-acquired pneumonia. Over the course of a 43-day hospital stay, the patient's pneumonia relapsed twice following two 5- to 7-day courses of cefazolin 8 g daily CI. Clearance of the pneumonia was achieved after a 14-day course of cefazolin 10 g daily CI, and the patient was discharged. Conclusion: Here, we describe a patient with incomplete clearance of MSSA pneumonia despite two 5- to 7-day courses of cefazolin 8 g daily CI. Following a 14-day course of cefazolin 10 g daily CI, the patient's fever and leukocytosis rapidly resolved without direct evidence of drug-related toxicity. This case report provides evidence for the safe and effective use of high-dose cefazolin CI in the clearance of persistent MSSA pneumonia.
