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 Surgical site infections (SSIs) are among the most frequent complications of surgical procedures globally and a major contributor to surgical morbidity, posing a huge burden on patients and health systems. To effectively treat SSI, the determination of sensitivity patterns is crucial to reduce the health burden and curb microbial resistance. Objective This study aimed to identify the most common microorganisms that cause infection at the surgical site after abdominal surgery and their antibiotic sensitivity trend. Methods The Department of Surgery at Ayub Teaching Hospital in Abbottabad, Pakistan, conducted this prospective observational study from March to August 2025. Through consecutive sampling, 89 patients were included in the study. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 27.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, New York, United States), was used for analyzing the data, and the results are presented in frequency tables and graphs. Results In 89 patients, the mean age was 39.3±20.9 years, 41.6% had comorbidities, and 67.4% underwent emergency surgery. Gram-negative bacteria predominated, with
