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

objectivesThis study aims to assess the in vitro activity of different cefoperazone-sulbactam ratios against different multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs). MATERIALS AND

methodsMinimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and susceptibility rates of cefoperazone, sulbactam and cefoperazone-sulbactam at fixed ratios of 2:1, 1:1 and 1:2 against 344 MDRO clinical isolates, including extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing

resultsCombined treatment with sulbactam and cefoperazone resulted in decreased MIC

conclusionAdding sulbactam enhances cefoperazone activity against most MDROs excluding carbapenem-resistant
