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

A rise in tigecycline resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae has been reported recently worldwide. We sought to identify risk factors, outcomes, and mechanisms for adult patients with tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia in Taiwan. We conducted a matched case-control study (ratio of 1:1) in a medical center in Taiwan from January 2011 through June 2015. The cases were patients with tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia, and the controls were patients with tigecycline-susceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia. Logistic regression was performed to evaluate the potential risk factors for tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR was performed to analyze acrA, oqxA, ramA, rarA, and kpgA expression among these isolates. A total of 43 cases were matched with 43 controls. The 14-day mortality of patients with tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia was 30.2%, and the 28-day mortality was 41.9%. The attributable mortalities of tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae at 14 and 28 days were 9.3 and 18.6%, respectively. Fluoroquinolone use within 30 days prior to bacteremia was the only independent risk factor for tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia. The tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia was mostly caused by overexpression of AcrAB and/or OqxAB efflux pumps, together with the upregulation of RamA and/or RarA, respectively. One isolate demonstrated isolated overexpression of kpgA In conclusion, tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae bacteremia was associated with high mortality, and prior fluoroquinolone use was the independent risk factor for the acquisition of tigecycline-nonsusceptible K. pneumoniae The overexpression of AcrAB and/or OqxAB contributes to tigecycline nonsusceptibility in K. pneumoniae.
