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 activity of the new cephalosporin CXA-101 (CXA), previously designated FR264205, was evaluated against a collection of 236 carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa isolates, including 165 different clonal types, from a Spanish multicenter (127-hospital) study. The MICs of CXA were compared to the susceptibility results for antipseudomonal penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, aminoglycosides, and fluoroquinolones. The MIC of CXA in combination with tazobactam (4 and 8 microg/ml) was determined for strains with high CXA MICs. The presence of acquired beta-lactamases was investigated by isoelectric focusing and PCR amplification followed by sequencing. Additional beta-lactamase genes were identified by cloning and sequencing. The CXA MIC50/MIC90 for the complete collection of carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa isolates was 1/4 microg/ml, with 95.3% of the isolates showing an MIC of <or=8 microg/ml. Cross-resistance with any of the antibiotics tested was not observed; the MIC50/MIC90 of CXA-101 was still 1/4 when multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains (42% of all tested isolates) or AmpC-hyperproducing clones (53%) were analyzed. Almost all (10/11) of the strains showing a CXA MIC of >8 microg/ml produced a horizontally acquired beta-lactamase, including the metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) VIM-2 (one strain), the extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) PER-1 (one strain), several extended-spectrum OXA enzymes (OXA-101 [one strain], OXA-17 [two strains], and a newly described OXA-2 derivative [W159R] designated OXA-144 [four strains]), and a new BEL variant (BEL-3) ESBL (one strain), as identified by cloning and sequencing. Synergy with tazobactam in these 11 strains was limited, although 8 microg/ml reduced the mean CXA MIC by 2-fold. CXA is highly active against carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa isolates, including MDR strains. Resistance was restricted to still-uncommon strains producing an acquired MBL or ESBL.
