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

backgroundMetallo-β-lactamase-producing

methodsThis study was undertaken to evaluate the utility of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) with the VITEK MS plus system in the detection of VIM- and SPM-type MBL-PA isolates. For each species, we increased the reference spectra, and then, a SuperSpectrum was created based on the selection of 39 specific masses. In a second step, we validated the SuperSpectra with the remaining 50 isolates (25 isolates of VIM-type and 25 isolates of SPM-type).

resultsFifty MBL-PA strains were used as the validation strains, including twenty-five VIM-type and twenty-five SPM-type MBL-PA strains. Complete antimicrobial susceptibility testing and genotypic characterizations were performed for all isolates, which were subsequently identified using the newly created SuperSpectra databases following a previously reported method. The results showed that there was 92% agreement between the MBL profile generated by MALDI-TOF MS and that obtained using gene sequencing analysis methods.

conclusionMALDI-TOF MS is a promising, rapid and economical method for detecting VIM- or SPM-type MBL-PA that could be successfully introduced into the routine diagnostic workflow of clinical microbiology laboratories.
