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

To analyse the antimicrobial phenotype, carbapenem mechanisms, integrons, virulence factors and molecular typing of 164 Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates recovered from lower tract respiratory samples in a Spanish hospital (1 year) as well as the patients' clinical data. Susceptibility testing to 12 antipseudomonal agents was determined by microdilution and metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) phenotype by double disc method. The oprD gene was studied by PCR, sequencing and comparison with P. aeruginosa PAO1 sequence. Detection and characterisation of MBLs, class 1, 2 and 3 integrons, and virulence genes were studied by PCR and sequencing. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant P. aeruginosa (CRPA) was 26.8%. MBL phenotype was detected in 52.3% CRPA, and all of them were disseminated throughout the intensive care unit. Most of the MBL-carrying patients presented respiratory disease, mechanical ventilation, tracheostomy, bacteraemia, ≥ 30 hospitalisation days and previous treatment with carbapenems and/or ≥ 3 different antimicrobial families.
