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

Objectives: Methicillin-resistant Methods: We analyzed 115 non-duplicate MRSA isolates from Tibetans, comprising 51 hospital-associated MRSA (HA-MRSA) from clinical infections and 64 community-colonizing MRSA (CA-MRSA). CA-MRSA isolates were obtained from nasal swabs of hospitalized patients within 24 h of admission (to exclude nosocomial acquisition) and from their family members between June and December 2023. All isolates underwent antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing (WGS)-based typing [sequence type (ST), Results: The MRSA nasal colonization rate was 10.53%. The clone CC59-ST59-SCC Conclusion: CC59-ST59-SCC
