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

Bacterial infections are common during the neonatal period, and sepsis is one of the main causes of mortality in dogs in the first 21 days. Maternal clinical and subclinical mastitis is one of the main sources of neonatal infection, leading to the ingestion of milk with bacteria and bacterial toxins, known as toxic milk syndrome. The objective of this report was to describe a case of neonatal sepsis in puppies secondary to maternal clinical mastitis, as well as its diagnosis and treatment. Three 5-day-old Pug dogs presented signs of neonatal infection: diarrhea, body erythema, and omphalitis. The bitch had purulent content in all of her breasts. Leukopenia due to neutropenia and monocytosis was observed in the puppies' blood count. The milk microbiological culture revealed
