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

aimTo develop a probe-based triplex quantitative real-time PCR assay to simultaneously detect the upregulation of the efflux pumps AmrAB-OprA, BpeAB-OprB and BpeEF-OprC in Burkholderia pseudomallei strains exhibiting increased minimum inhibitory concentrations toward meropenem, doxycycline or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole.

methodsThe triplex assay was developed and subsequently tested on RNA isolated from eight clinical and eight laboratory-generated B. pseudomallei mutants harboring efflux pump regulator mutations.

resultsThe triplex assay accurately detected efflux pump upregulation in all clinical and laboratory mutants, which corresponded with decreased antibiotic susceptibility or antibiotic resistance.

conclusionRapid detection of antibiotic resistance provides clinicians with a tool to identify potential treatment failure in near real time, enabling informed alteration of treatment during an infection and improved patient outcomes.
