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

To determine whether there are differences in risk factors and outcomes among patients with E. coli bacteremia caused by strains that produce CTX-M or non-CTX-M extended-spectrum beta-lactamases. From 1 July 2005 to 30 June 2007, patients with positive blood culture of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL)-producing E. coli were reviewed. Sixty patients with ESBL-producing E. coli bacteremia were identified. These included 41 (68.3%) isolates with CTX-M β-lactamases. CTX-M-14 accounted for 31 (75.6%) and CTX-M-3 for 9 (22.0%) of the 41 CTX-M isolates. Patients with CTX-M strains were less likely, by univariate analysis, to have significant risk factors for infection including age ≥ 65 years, chronic renal insufficiency, ICU stay at bacteremia onset, central venous catheter use and mechanical ventilation. Multivariate analysis revealed that chronic renal failure and ICU stay were independent predictors. Antibiograms were similar for CTX-M and non-CTX-M producers except that CTX-M strains were significantly more susceptible to cefmetazole (92.7 vs 36.8%, p < 0.0001). The overall mortality and length of hospitalization were not significantly different between the two groups. E. coli with CTX-M β-lactamases was more likely than non-CTX-M strains to invade non-compromised patients. There were no differences in clinical outcomes between the two groups.
