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 objective of our study is to estimate the differences in molecular epidemiology and resistance mechanisms in carbapenem-resistant

methodsCarbapenemase genes associated with carbapenem resistance were studied by polymerase chain reaction(PCR). Genotyping was analyzed using multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) and pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE).

resultsSixty non-duplicate CRAB isolates from the ICU and RD (n=30, respectively) were collected. All of CRAB strains were not resistant to colistin (0%). The CRAB strains from the ICU were significantly more resistant to tigecycline and cefoperazone/sulbactam compared with the RD (23.3% vs 0%, P=0.03; 53.3% % vs 23.3%, P=0.01, respectively). PCR detection of genes associated with CRAB revealed that the ratio in both the ICU and the RD of

conclusionThere are differences in molecular epidemiology and resistance mechanisms in the CRAB isolates between the ICU and RD.
