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

Background: Frequency of extended-spectrum- Methods: A total of 2372 samples were processed in three tertiary care hospitals and one diagnostic research center of Lahore, Pakistan during Aug-2014 to Sep-2017. Analytical profile index (API 20-E) was used for biochemical characterization of isolates. Antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST) and third generation cephalosporin resistant (3GC-R) isolates were subjected to: double disc synergism test (DDST), combination disc test (CDST) and epsilometric test (E-test) for confirmation of ESBL-production. PCR amplification of isolates with plasmid and genomic DNA was performed. Amplicon sequences were checked for gene-variants and statistical analyses were performed to check the significance of data. Results: A total of 497/995 (50%) isolates including Conclusion: Prevalence of ESBL-producing isolates has increased 1.13 folds during study years. Isolates had high prevalence of ESBL-encoding
