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

backgroundCarbapenems are considered "drugs of last resort" in many life-threatening infections. Advent of carbapenemases like KPC, OXA-48, VIM, IMP, and NDM have greatly affected the efficacy of these drugs, posing serious threat to global health and infection control. NDM bears special significance to the India subcontinent, labeled as place of origin and reservoir. NDM tends to escape detection by routine phenotypic methods, requiring molecular confirmation. This study utilizes nested, multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for reliable detection of

methodsThis study was conducted to detect prevalence of

resultsOut of 100 isolates, 17 (17%) were found to be imipenem-resistant.
