Efficacies of Single-Dose Ceftriaxone Regimens in Treating Gonococcal Paraurethral Duct Infection in Men.

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
This study compared the efficacies of single-dose ceftriaxone therapy at doses of 250 mg, 500 mg, and 1 g for gonococcal paraurethral duct infection in men. Forty-eight men with gonococcal paraurethral duct infection were assigned to Groups A, B, and C based on their order of arrival in the clinic; each group comprised 16 patients. Groups A, B, and C received single intramuscular doses of ceftriaxone at 250 mg, 500 mg, and 1 g, respectively. The mean times to resolution of purulent discharge from the paraurethral duct were 1.87 ± 0.81 days in Group A, 1.06 ± 0.25 days in Group B, and 1.13 ± 0.34 days in Group C. The mean times to resolution of erythematous swelling at skin lesions were 4.75 ± 1.69 days in Group A, 3.44 ± 0.89 days in Group B, and 3.31 ± 1.25 days in Group C. The mean times to resolution of tenderness at skin lesions were 5.25 ± 1.00 days in Group A, 3.06 ± 0.10 days in Group B, and 2.38 ± 1.03 days in Group C. The mean times to closure of the paraurethral duct orifice were 9.88 ± 2.92 days in Group A, 6.88 ± 1.71 days in Group B, and 6.38 ± 1.86 days in Group C. The resolution times significantly differed between Group A and Groups B and C (all
