Clinical and Microbiological Characteristics of Patients with Complicated Intra-abdominal Infections in Intensive Care Unit.
Article in Current medical science, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
In order to investigate the clinical and microbiological characteristics of patients with complicated intra-abdominal infections (cIAIs) in intensive care unit (ICU), the clinical data of 612 cIAIs patients from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively collected. Clinical characteristics, distribution of pathogens and drug resistance were statistically analyzed. It was found that patients with community-acquired intra-abdominal infections (CA-IAIs) made up a majority of cIAIs patients. The positive rate of abdominal drainage fluid culture was 55.56%. Gramnegative bacteria accounted for the majority, the most commonly isolated bacteria of which were Escherichia coli (20.96%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (10.20%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (5.57%). The most commonly isolated gram-positive bacteria were Enterococcus (16.88%) and Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA, 3.90%). Enterobacter isolates showed high resistance rate to most cephalosporins and low resistance rate to piperacillin/tazobactam and carbapenems. Extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) screen positive isolates from CA-IAIs patients showed an increasing trend in past three years. Enterococcus and MRSA showed high resistance rate to clindamycin, quinolone, erythromycin and tetracycline, while they showed high sensitivity rate to linezolid, tegacycline, teicoplanin and vancomycin. Our results indicate that isolated bacteria from abdominal drainage fluid show high resistance rates to commonly used antibiotics in ICU patients with cIAIs. The curative effects on diseases should be monitored continuously when antibiotics are used. Meanwhile, we should always keep eyes on drug-resistant bacteria, especially when the treatment efficacy is not good.
