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

The percentages of susceptibility of 28 strains of Campylobacter coli to beta-lactam agents were 96% for amoxicillin and ampicillin, 57% for ticarcillin, 4% for cefoxitin and cefuroxime, 61% for cefotaxime, and 11% for ceftazidime. None of the strains were susceptible to penicillin G, piperacillin, cefazolin, cephalothin, cefamandole, and cefoperazone. All strains were susceptible to imipenem and ciprofloxacin, and 21% were susceptible to erythromycin. A beta-lactamase was detected in 68% of the strains by cefinase disks and by the nitrocefin method. The beta-lactamase-positive strains were significantly less susceptible to amoxicillin, ampicillin, and ticarcillin than the beta-lactamase-negative strains (P < or = 0.003). Clavulanic acid (0.25 microgram/ml) but not sulbactam and tazobactam (2 micrograms/ml) lowered to susceptible levels the amoxicillin and ampicillin MICs of the only strain of C. coli resistant to amoxicillin, ampicillin, and ticarcillin.
