Management of Pneumonia and Blood Stream Infections with New Antibiotic Adjuvant Entity (Ceftriaxone + Sulbactam + Disodium Edetate)- A Novel Way to Spare Carbapenems.

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
introductionNosocomial infections have been considered as a major health problem causing incremental morbidity, mortality and costs of therapy.
aimThis retrospective study was initiated with aim to analyse the comparative efficacy of a novel Antibiotic Adjuvant Entity (AAE), a combination of ceftriaxone + sulbactam + disodium edetate and meropenem in combination with colistin, for the management of Multi Drug Resistant (MDR) nosocomial Gram-negative bacterial infections. MATERIALS AND
methodsCase history sheets of patients with documented MDR nosocomial Gram-negative infections who received either AAE or meropenem in combination with colistin for management of infections over a period of 3 years (November 2012 - October 2015) were included in the study. Data related to clinical management, demographics, vital signs and laboratory parameters along with prior antibiotic therapy, dose and clinical outcomes were evaluated thoroughly to analyse the clinical benefits of this new AAE+ colistin therapy for management of MDR nosocomial infections.
resultsOut of 115 patients short listed for the study, 52 patients had received AAE + colistin therapy and 63 patients have received meropenem + colistin. AAE + colistin therapy resulted in significantly higher efficacy (86.53%) as compared to meropenem + colistin (63.49%). A rising trend in clinical cure rates was observed in AAE based combination therapy in contrast to the decreasing trend in meropenem based combination therapy. A progressive decline in clinical cure rates was observed in meropenem treated group over a period of 3 years due to rising carbapenemases and multiple resistance by pathogens, where as AAE maintained the same efficacy.
conclusionThe AAE + colistin therapy has shown better bacteriological and clinical efficacy as compared to meropenem + colistin in the management of various nosocomial MDR Gram-negative infections. A significant number of meropenem failure patients responded to the AAE therapy highlighting the new hope to spare carbapenems.
