Acinetobacter baumannii producing OXA-23 detected in the Czech Republic.
Article in SpringerPlus, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundAcinetobacter baumannii is an opportunistic pathogen posing an increased risk to hospitalized persons, causing nosocomial pneumonias, urinary tract infections and postoperative infections.
methodsBetween 1 December 2011 and 30 September 2012, strains of Acinetobacter spp. were isolated from clinical samples obtained from hospitalized patients. Susceptibility to antibiotics was determined by the standard microdilution method and phenotypic testing was used to detect the presence of serine carbapenemases and metallo-beta-lactamases. The polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the genes encoding carbapenemases. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis was used to investigate the genetic relationship among the carbapenem resistant isolates of Acinetobacter baumannii.
resultsIn three strains of Acinetobacter baumannii enzyme OXA-23 was detected. This positive result was confirmed by restriction analysis and sequencing. The study reported an OXA-23-producing strains of Acinetobacter baumannii in the Czech Republic. All three strains isolated from Military Hospital patients had a completely identical restriction profile, indicating clonal spread of a strain carrying serine carbapenemase OXA-23 in this health care facility. Moreover this was the first time the strain was detected in the country in patients who had not stayed abroad.
