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

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major public health threat of global proportions, which has the potential to lead to approximately ten million deaths per year by 2050. Pressured by this wicked problem, in 2014, the World Health Organization launched a call for member states to share AMR data through the implementation of the Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS), to appropriately scale and monitor the general situation world-widely. In 2017, Brazil joined GLASS and, in 2018, started its own national antimicrobial surveillance program (BR-GLASS) to understand the impact of resistance in the country. We compiled data obtained from the complete routine of three hospitals' microbiology labs during the year of 2018. This pilot data sums up to 200,874 antimicrobial susceptibility test results from 11,347 isolates. It represents 119 different microorganisms recovered from 44 distinct types of clinical samples. Specimens came from patients originating from 301 Brazilian cities, with 4,950 of these isolates from presumed Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) and the other 6,397 community-acquired cases. The female population offered 58% of the collected samples, while the other 42% were of male origin. The urinary tract was the most common topography (6,372/11,347 isolates), followed by blood samples (2,072/11,347). Gram-negative predominated the bacterial isolates:
