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

Chlorhexidine, cetrimide, chloroxylenol, and povidone iodine, in various combinations and concentrations are widely used antiseptics in clinical settings for skin antisepsis and hand hygiene in India. Evidences suggest that exposure of bacterial pathogens to antiseptics over a period of time can result in adaptation of bacteria resulting in tolerance and cross-resistance towards antiseptics and antibiotics. Given the crucial role that antiseptics play in reducing infection and preventing the spread of AMR, understanding the adaptation to antiseptics becomes a critical element in using them effectively. This study is aimed at determining the behavior of two clinically relevant species
