In vitro activity of imipenem-relebactam against non-MBL carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated in Greek hospitals in 2015-2016.
Article in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 28 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Relebactam is a β-lactamase inhibitor of class A and class C β-lactamases, including carbapenemases. We evaluated the ability of relebactam to restore imipenem susceptibility against a collection of Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates from Greek hospitals. We tested 314 non-MBL carbapenemase-producing K. pneumoniae consecutive clinical strains isolated from unique patients at 18 hospitals in Greece, between November 2014 and December 2016. Susceptibility testing of imipenem, imipenem-relebactam, meropenem, doripenem, gentamicin, and colistin was performed using broth microdilution. Additionally, MICs of ceftazidime-avibactam, fosfomycin, and tigecycline were determined by MIC Test Strips. MICs were interpreted per EUCAST breakpoints. Imipenem-relebactam MICs were interpreted using the breakpoints proposed for imipenem. Carbapenemase genes were detected using PCR. Whole genome sequencing was performed for selected isolates. Imipenem-relebactam inhibited 98.0% of the KPC-producing isolates at ≤ 2 mg/L (MIC
