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

Sulbactam is one of four β-lactamase inhibitors in current clinical use to counteract drug resistance caused by degradation of β-lactam antibiotics by these bacterial enzymes. As a β-lactam itself, sulbactam is susceptible to degradation by β-lactamases. I investigated the Michaelis-Menten kinetics of sulbactam hydrolysis by 14 β-lactamases, representing clinically widespread groups within all four Ambler classes, i.e., CTX-M-15, KPC-2, SHV-5, and TEM-1 for class A; IMP-1, NDM-1, and VIM-1 for class B;
