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

Objective: Methods: Eleven cases of Results: Two cases were diagnosed as hospital-acquired sepsis, while nine were classified as contamination. The isolates exhibited intrinsic resistance to first- and second-generation cephalosporins but remained susceptible to carbapenems. Seven resistance genes-including aac(6')-Ic, oqxB, and tet(41)-and four virulence genes, including cheY and fliM, were identified. Nine isolates carried IncFII-type plasmids. Core genome SNP analysis revealed minimal genetic divergence, with the most recent common ancestor traceable to late 2023, suggesting approximately 10 months of silent transmission. Transmission tree inference further indicated the presence of undetected cryptic cases. Following the implementation of bundled interventions-including sink replacements and disinfectant use, reinforcement of hand hygiene, and environmental decontamination-no new cases occurred during 1 month of follow-up. Conclusion: This study identified a highly clonal
