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

The clinical usefulness of aminoglycosides has been revisited as an effective choice against β-lactam-resistant and fluoroquinolone-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections. Plazomicin, a next-generation aminoglycoside, was introduced for the treatment of complicated urinary tract infections and acute pyelonephritis. In contrast, bacteria have resisted aminoglycosides, including plazomicin, by producing 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) methyltransferases (MTases) that confer high-level and broad-range aminoglycoside resistance. Aminoglycoside-resistant 16S rRNA MTase-producing gram-negative pathogens are widespread in various settings and are becoming a grave concern. This article provides up-to-date information with a focus on aminoglycoside-resistant 16S rRNA MTases.
