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

objectiveTo provide insight into the practical implications of the use of ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/vaborbactam for the management of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and to identify strategies for overcoming barriers to the use of these agents in clinical practice. DATA SOURCES: A literature search of PubMed was conducted using the following search terms: ceftazidime/avibactam, meropenem/vaborbactam, carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, antimicrobial stewardship, and clinical laboratory standards institute. Abstracts from infectious diseases conferences, article bibliographies, and relevant drug monographs were also reviewed. STUDY SELECTION/DATA EXTRACTION: Relevant English-language studies were considered. DATA SYNTHESIS: Studies demonstrating the clinical utility of ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/vaborbactam over older agents for CRE were summarized. Laboratory challenges, including lack of widespread technology and delays in usable information, and formulary considerations were discussed. Insight was provided into overcoming these challenges and minimizing barriers using infectious diseases pharmacists, antimicrobial stewardship teams, and infection control teams. RELEVANCE TO PATIENT CARE AND CLINICAL PRACTICE: This review informs clinicians of the potential difficulties of the use of ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/vaborbactam in clinical practice and provides tools to overcome these difficulties, thus allowing clinicians to stay at the forefront of CRE treatment.

conclusionsClinicians treating patients with CRE infections need to be aware of challenges they may face when using ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/vaborbactam. Infectious disease (ID) pharmacists and antimicrobial stewardship teams play an important role in minimizing barriers and ensuring appropriate use of these antibiotics.
