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

objectivesThe global emergence of OXA-48-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clones is a significant threat to public health. We used WGS and phylogenetic analysis of Spanish isolates to investigate the population structure of blaOXA-48-like-expressing K. pneumoniae ST11 and ST405 and to determine the distribution of resistance genes and plasmids encoding blaOXA-48-like carbapenemases.

methodsSNPs identified in whole-genome sequences were used to reconstruct phylogenetic trees, identify resistance determinants and de novo assemble the genomes of 105 blaOXA-48-like-expressing K. pneumoniae isolates.

resultsGenome variation was generally lower in outbreak-associated isolates compared with those associated with sporadic infections. The relatively limited variation observed within the outbreak-associated isolates was on average 7-10 SNPs per outbreak. Of 24 isolates from suspected sporadic infections, 7 were very closely related to isolates causing hospital outbreaks and 17 were more diverse and therefore probably true sporadic cases. On average, 14 resistance genes were identified per isolate. The 17 ST405 isolates from sporadic cases of infection had four distinct resistance gene profiles, while the resistance gene profile differed in all ST11 isolates from sporadic cases. Sequence analysis of 94 IncL/M plasmids carrying blaOXA-48-like genes revealed an average of two SNP differences, indicating a conserved plasmid clade.

conclusionsWhole-genome sequence analysis enabled the discrimination of outbreak and sporadic isolates. Significant inter-regional spread within Spain of highly related isolates was evident for both ST11 and ST405 K. pneumoniae. IncL/M plasmids carrying blaOXA-48-like carbapenemase genes were highly conserved geographically and across the outbreaks, sporadic cases and clones.
