[Prevention of infectious diseases : The role of infectious disease specialists].
Review in Innere Medizin (Heidelberg, Germany), 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
backgroundInfectious diseases are among the most frequent diseases encountered in both inpatient and outpatient settings. Therefore, the prevention of infections is a central task for physicians across all medical specialties.
objectivesThis article discusses various areas of prevention and highlights the pivotal role of infectious disease specialists.
resultsVaccines are among the most effective measures for disease prevention overall. They are used in primary as well as for secondary prevention; however, to achieve the preventive targets an improvement in the vaccination rates in Germany is urgently necessary. To increase vaccine utilization, improvements in the intersectoral and interdisciplinary cooperation of various medical disciplines are of major importance. For prevention of the further spread of antimicrobial resistance, antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) teams have successfully been established in hospitals and AMS should also increasingly play a role in outpatient care. Another major task of prevention is the avoidance of nosocomial infections.
conclusionThe frequency as well as the medical and social impact of infectious diseases in healthcare clearly demonstrate the importance of prevention in this field. Improvements in provision of care are necessary at various levels with a focus on intersectoral and interdisciplinary cooperation of the medical disciplines. Infectious disease specialists should play a key role in coordinating these initiatives.
