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: Bacteriophage therapy offers an alternative way to counter the menace of increasing antimicrobial resistance. Despite its use in clinical practice for many decades the basic tools to study the translational pharmacodynamics of phages are not available and it is recognized that lack of understanding of phage pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) is a severe limitation in individual patient use and clinical trial design. Methods: Traditional Results: In TKCs, the four Conclusions: An
