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

We report the emergence and spread of multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis type 27 (MT-27) macrolide-resistant Bordetella pertussis (MRBP) in Kobe, Japan, in 2025. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that MT27-MRBP did not originate from the widely circulating MT27 macrolide-sensitive B. pertussis in Japan but was closely related to MRBP in China.
