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

Antibiogram profile of 1590 clinical bacterial isolates based on thirteen different antimicrobial compounds showed that 1.6% of the bacterial isolates are multidrug resistant. Distribution pattern based on 16S rRNA sequence analysis showed that Pseudomonas aeruginosa constituted the largest group (83.6%) followed by Burkholderia pseudomallei sp. A191 (5.17%), Staphylococcus sp. A261 (3.45%). Among the various antibiotics used, colistin appeared to be the most effective against the Gram negative bacteria. Burkholderia pseudomallei sp. A191 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa sp. A111 showed resistance to 1500 μg/ml and 750 μg/ml of colistin respectively which constitutes 7.7% of the bacterial population. A functional genomics strategy was employed to discover the molecular support for colistin resistance in Burkholderia pseudomallei sp. A191. A pUC plasmid-based genomic expression library was constructed with an estimated library size of 2.1 × 10(7)bp. Five colistin resistant clones were obtained after functional screening of the library. Analysis of DNA sequence of five colistin resistant clones showed homology to two component regularity systems (TCRS) encoding for a histidine kinase (mrgS) and its regulatory component (mrgR). Cross complementation assay showed that mutations in mrgS were sufficient enough to confer colistin resistant phenotype in a sensitive strain.
