Timing and efficacy of doxycycline in macrolide-resistant
Article in Frontiers in public health, 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
Background: Outbreaks of macrolide-resistant Methods: We retrospectively analyzed children with MRMPP hospitalized between September 2022 and February 2024. They were divided into three main groups based on antibiotic use: (1) those who received azithromycin only (AZI group); (2) those who received doxycycline only (DOX group); (3) those who received azithromycin followed by doxycycline (ATD group), divided into two subgroups according to the duration of azithromycin use: azithromycin use < = 3-day subgroup (ATD1) and azithromycin use > 3-day subgroup (ATD2). Oxygen therapy, electronic bronchoscopy, hormones and gamma globulin were also recorded. Length of hospital stay and duration of fever were used as outcome measures for comparative analyses. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was used to adjust the score. Results: 312 eligible children were identified. The DOX group had the highest 48-h fever reduction rate (80%). The AZI group had a higher proportion of oxygen (77%) and e-bronchoscopy (75%) use, and the ADT group had a higher proportion of hormone use (39%). After adjustment for PSM, oxygen use remained higher in the ATD2 group than in the DOX+ATD1 group ( Conclusions: Early use of doxycycline in treating MRMPP reduces reliance on adjuvant therapies, thus easing the burden on healthcare resources.
