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

objectivesTo determine the contribution of specific uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) lineages, drug resistance genes, and plasmid incompatibility/replicon (Inc) groups to the prevalence of β-lactam-resistant urinary tract infections (UTIs) in a university community.

methodsUrine samples were consecutively collected and cultured over a 2-year period from patients presenting to a university health centre with symptoms of UTI. Isolated UPEC were subtyped by multilocus sequence typing and fimH typing, and tested by PCR and sequencing for β-lactamase genes and plasmid Inc groups.

resultsAmong 273 UPEC isolates, 85 (31%) were ampicillin-resistant (AMP-R) and 188 (69%) were susceptible to all β-lactam drugs (AMP-S). Six lineages accounted for two-thirds of the isolates: ST95 (21%), ST69 (11%), ST420 (11%), ST73 (10%), ST127 (8%), and ST404 (3%). ST69 and ST404 were associated with AMP-R (P=0.003, P=0.0005), while ST420 and ST127 were associated with AMP-S (P<0.0001, P=0.027). ST95 contained four fimH types; the ST95/f-6 sublineage was more frequently identified among the AMP-R population (P = 0.009), while the ST95/f-47 sublineage was more frequently identified among the AMP-S population (P=0.007). The most common β-lactamase gene was bla

conclusionsThese observations indicate that the prevalence of β-lactam-resistant UTIs in this community was largely determined by a limited set of circulating UPEC STs and sublineages, carrying TEM β-lactamase genes that were likely encoded on one of three Inc type plasmids.
