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

Increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a worldwide ongoing issue. Urgent need for new antibacterial agents has resulted in significant research efforts, with new molecules proposed for use in clinical practice. However, as highlighted by many groups this process does not have an optimal rhythm and efficacy, to fully combat highly adaptive germs, particularly in the intensive care units. This review focuses on the last three years of novel FDA approved antibacterial agents (2015-2017): ceftazidime/avibactam, obiltoxaximab, bezlotoxu-mab, delafloxacin, meropenem/vaborbactam, ozenoxacin. Ceftazidime/avibactam and meropenem/ vaborbactam are new players in the field of resistant bacteria treatment. Ceftazidime/avibactam is validated in selected patients with complicated urinary or intra-abdominal infections, hospital and ventilator-associated pneumonia. Meropenem/ vaborbactam gained approval for the cases of complicated urinary tract infections. Other potential indications are under investigation, widened and validated by future studies. Obiltoxaximab is a monoclonal antibody that can be used in the prevention and treatment of inhalational anthrax. Bezlotoxumab monoclonal antibody is an useful and specific tool for the management of recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. Delafloxacin is approved for patients with acute skin or skin structure infections. Despite recent progress, it is imperative to continue the development of new antibiotic drugs and new strategies to counteract resistance to antibiotics.
