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: Previous reports suggest that neonatal sepsis with methicillin-resistant (MR) CoNS can be treated with first-generation cephalosporins. We have evaluated the Patients and methods: Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed in 167 CoNS isolates from 135 very preterm infants (<32 weeks gestation) with late-onset sepsis. Microbroth dilution chequerboard assay explored antibiotic synergy. PCR detected Results: All CoNS isolates were susceptible to amikacin and vancomycin. Most were phenotypically resistant to gentamicin (92%) and cefoxitin (93%), and 89% carried the Conclusions: CoNS isolates had lower MICs for cefazolin than oxacillin, and 83% were
