A Two-Year Retrospective Study of Blood Cultures in a Secondary Western Greece Healthcare Setting.
Article in Microorganisms, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Blood culture remains the gold standard for identifying bloodstream infections caused by bacteria and fungi. Isolation of the culprit microorganism onto agar plates also facilitates antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The purpose of this study was to determine the contamination rates, pathogen profile, and antimicrobial resistance in a secondary healthcare setting in a two-year timeframe. In this study, data regarding blood cultures of the years 2023 and 2024 were retrospectively analyzed to address the above questions. Blood cultures were incubated for seven days before being discarded as negative. The percentage of positive blood cultures for both years was 14.3%. Most positive cultures contained Gram-positive cocci, with a prevalence of coagulase-negative
