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

Due to the spread of a single CTX-M-type extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) clone of sequence type (ST) 131, community-onset bacteremia caused by ESBL-producing Escherichia coli has increased dramatically. We evaluated the risk factors and molecular features of ESBL-producing E. coli ST131 clones isolated from Korean patients with community-onset bacteremia. We collected a total of 124 ESBL-producing E. coli isolates from blood in patients with community-onset bacteremia over a 2 year-period. Among 124 patients, the number of community-associated bacteremia cases was 57 (46%). ST131 strains accounted for 49.1% (28/57) of community-associated bacteremia cases and 44.8% (30/67) of healthcare-associated community-onset bacteremia cases. Among 58 ST131 strains, nine isolates were shown to harbor O16-H41, and 61.1% (30/49) of O25 had H30Rx. In a multivariate analysis, independent risk factors for acquisition of ST131 isolates over non-ST131 isolates were underlying diabetes mellitus and absence of prior chemotherapy history. The most common ESBL genotype was CTX-M-15 (46.0%), followed by CTX-M-14 (37.1%). A considerable proportion of community-onset ESBL-producing E. coli bacteremia was observed. ST131 clones appear to be associated with the spread of community-associated bacteremia exhibiting high antimicrobial resistance and highly virulent H30Rx traits, which could become a major public health concern in Korea.
