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 emergence of tigecycline resistance has increased in the last years. Although tigecycline-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii isolates were described all over the world, few reports regarding the molecular basis of this resistance are available. It has been recognized that the overexpression of AdeABC efflux pump is related to the tigecycline-resistant phenotype. In 37 clinical A. baumannii isolates we first determined the tigecycline-resistant phenotype and then, within a selected group, we analyzed the sequence of the adeRS operon, which is involved in the expression of the AdeABC efflux pump. Nucleotide sequence analysis of adeR and adeS showed the presence of 5 and 16 alleles, respectively. These results expose a high genetic variability in both genes, the adeS gene being more susceptible to genetic variation. The presence of 2 AdeR and 2 AdeS new variants were reported. Two of the new AdeRS variants were present in the intermediate and the resistant tigecycline A. baumannii isolates, suggesting a putative role in the development of the observed phenotype. More studies need to be addressed to determine the role of the genetic variability observed in the adeRS operon.
