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

backgroundThe most successful application of mass spectrometry (MS) in laboratory medicine is identification (ID) of microorganisms using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) in blood stream infection. We describe MALDI-TOF MS-based bacterial ID with particular emphasis on the methods so far developed to directly identify microorganisms from positive blood culture bottles with MALDI-TOF MS including our own protocols. We touch upon the increasing roles of Liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) as well. MAIN BODY: Because blood culture bottles contain a variety of nonbacterial proteins that may interfere with analysis and interpretation, appropriate pretreatments are prerequisites for successful ID. Pretreatments include purification of bacterial pellets and short-term subcultures to form microcolonies prior to MALDI-TOF MS analysis. Three commercial protocols are currently available: the Sepsityper

conclusionMALDI-TOF MS is now an essential tool for rapid bacterial ID of pathogens that cause blood stream infection. For the purpose of assessment of susceptibility and resistance to antibiotics of the pathogens, the roles of liquid chromatography (LC) coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) will increase in the future.
