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

backgroundEnterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) is one of the most common extended-spectrum β-lactamase and carbapenemase-producing pathogen that threatens millions of the elderly and vulnerable sick persons. The objective of this study was to perform the molecular characteristics of the carbapenem-resistant E. cloacae complex (CREC) emerged in Heilongjiang Province of China.

methodsSix CREC strains were isolated from the patients with infectious diseases. The identities of ECC isolates were confirmed by sequencing the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products of 16S rRNA gene. The characterization of the CREC isolates were analyzed by sequencing PCR products of the carbapenemase, ampC and fluoroquinolone resistance genes and performing multilocus sequence typing (MLST), pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and whole genome sequencing.

resultsAll 6 isolates harbored multiple resistance genes. Of them, 5 carried metallo-β-lactamases and one was bla

conclusionsOur study, for the first time, identified a CREC strain that co-produces bla
