Class A and D Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamases in Imipenem Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Isolated From Burn Patients in Iran.
Article in Jundishapur journal of microbiology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundPseudomonas aeruginosa remains a leading cause of severe wound infection and mortality in burn patients.
objectivesThe current study aimed to determine the prevalence of Ambler class A and D β-lactamases among P. aeruginosa isolated from infected burn injuries in Tehran, Iran. PATIENTS AND
methodsBacteriological samples were taken from burn patients with clinical symptoms of burn infection. Fifty Gram-negative, oxidase-positive, catalase- positive bacilli, grown at 42ºC and production of pigment on Mueller-Hinton agar were identified as P. aeruginosa. All of the 50 isolates were examined for antibiotic susceptibility via disk diffusion method, and production of Ambler class A and and D β-lactamases by phenotypic screening test. The presence of Ambler class A and D β-lactamases was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction technique.
resultsThe results showed that the majority of isolates (88%) were multi-drug resistant. Out of these 50 imipenem resistant isolates, 7 (14%), 18 (36%), 18 (36%) and 18 (36%) strains were positive for bla PER , bla OXA-10 , bla TEM and bla SHV genes alone or in combination, respectively. None of the isolates possessed bla KPC or bla GES genes.
conclusionsThe current study highlights that the high level of resistance to many antibacterial agents and a gradual increase in the degree of PER, OXA-10, SHV and TEM ESBLs among the majority of imipenem resistant P. aeruginosa isolated from patients with burn infection is an enormous threat in burn centers in Iran.
