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
Ceftazidime-avibactam disk studies were performed for disk mass selection and for establishing EUCAST quality control ranges and zone diameter breakpoints. The disk mass study included disk diffusion testing with ceftazidime-avibactam 10-4 and 10-6 μg disks and broth microdilution MIC testing for challenge set of 94 Enterobacteriaceae and 45 Pseudomonas aeruginosa. EUCAST SOP 9.0-based QC and MIC-disk correlations studies were followed for development of ceftazidime-avibactam 10-4 μg ranges for Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27583, and Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 700603 and for zone diameter breakpoint determination. The ceftazidime-avibactam 10-4 and 10-6 μg disks performed similar in comparison to broth microdilution, with zones ≤ 14 mm for all resistant strains. The 10-4 μg disk was selected and used in QC and breakpoint studies. There was minimal variation of ceftazidime-avibactam 10-4 μg QC study results between disks, media, and sites. The QC ranges were within 7 mm for all strains. The zone diameter breakpoint study demonstrated good correlation of MIC and disk results. The established zone diameter breakpoints resulted in false susceptible rates of 1.6 and 4.0% for Enterobacteriaceae and P. aeruginosa. EUCAST selected the ceftazidime-avibactam 10-4 μg disk and established QC ranges for E. coli 25922 of 24-30 mm, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853 of 21-27 mm, and K. pneumoniae ATCC 700603 of 18-24 mm. The zone diameter breakpoints that correlated best with the MIC breakpoints of susceptible ≤ 8 mg/L and resistant > 8 mg/L were Enterobacteriaceae (S ≥ 13, R < 13 mm) and P. aeruginosa (S ≥ 17, R < 17 mm).
