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

The alarming increase in antibiotic resistance rates reported for various pathogens has resulted in the use of alternative treatment policies. Given the fairly limited availability of new antimicrobial drugs, the reassessment of older antibiotics is now an interesting option. Fosfomycin, a bactericidal analog of phosphoenolpyruvate that has been previously been employed as an oral treatment for uncomplicated urinary tract infection, has recently raised interest among physicians worldwide. In general, the advanced resistance described in Gram-negative bacteria suggests that fosfomycin can be an appropriate treatment option for patients with highly resistant microbial infections. This review, which refers to key available data, focuses on the possibility of extending the use of fosfomycin beyond urinary tract infections and against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria.
