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

A multispecies outbreak of IMP-6 carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (IMP-6-CPE) occurred at an acute care hospital in Japan. This study was conducted to understand the mechanisms of IMP-6-CPE transmission by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multilocus sequence typing and whole-genome sequencing (WGS), and identify risk factors for IMP-6-CPE acquisition in patients who underwent abdominal surgery. Between July 2013 and March 2014, 22 hospitalized patients infected or colonized with IMP-6-CPE (Escherichia coli [n = 8], Klebsiella oxytoca [n = 5], Enterobacter cloacae [n = 5], Klebsiella pneumoniae [n = 3] and Klebsiella aerogenes [n = 1]) were identified. There were diverse PFGE profiles and sequence types (STs) in most of the species except for K. oxytoca. All isolates of K. oxytoca belonged to ST29 with similar PFGE profiles, suggesting their clonal transmission. Plasmid analysis by WGS revealed that all 22 isolates but one shared a ca. 50-kb IncN plasmid backbone with bla
