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 most common mechanism of resistance to β-lactams antibiotics in Gram-negative bacteria is production of β-lactamase enzymes capable of cleaving the β-lactam ring. Inhibition of β-lactamase activity with small-molecule drugs is a proven strategy to restore the potency of many β-lactam antibiotics. Vaborbactam (formerly RPX7009) is a cyclic boronic acid β-lactamase inhibitor (BLI) with a broad spectrum of activity against various serine β-lactamases, including KPC carbapenemases. The combination of vaborbactam and meropenem is approved in the United States and Europe for the treatment of various nosocomial infections. We attempted to gain more insight into the mechanism of action of vaborbactam by conducting detailed kinetic characterization of its interaction with various recombinant His-tagged β-lactamases. Vaborbactam demonstrated potent inhibition of class A and class C enzymes with
