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

Antibiotic collateral sensitivity (CS) occurs when a bacterium that acquires resistance to a treatment drug exhibits decreased resistance to a different drug. Here we identify reciprocal CS networks and candidate genes in Burkholderia multivorans. Burkholderia multivorans was evolved to become resistant to each of six antibiotics. The antibiogram of the evolved strain was compared with the immediate parental strain to determine CS and cross-resistance. The evolution process was continued for each resistant strain. CS interactions were observed in 170 of 279 evolved strains. CS patterns grouped into two clusters based on the treatment drug being a β-lactam antibiotic or not. Reciprocal pairs of CS antibiotics arose in ≥25% of all evolved strains. A total of 68 evolved strains were subjected to whole-genome sequencing and the resulting mutation patterns were correlated with antibiograms. Analysis revealed there was no single gene responsible for CS and that CS seen in B. multivorans is likely due to a combination of specific and non-specific mutations. The frequency of reciprocal CS, and the degree to which resistance changed, suggests a long-term treatment strategy; when resistance to one drug occurs, switch to use of the other member of the reciprocal pair. This switching could theoretically be continued indefinitely, allowing life-long treatment of chronic infections with just two antibiotics.
