A Multicenter Evaluation of Ceftolozane/Tazobactam Treatment Outcomes in Immunocompromised Patients With Multidrug-Resistant
Article in Open forum infectious diseases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundReal-world data assessing outcomes of immunocompromised patients treated with ceftolozane/tazobactam (C/T) are limited. This study evaluated treatment and clinical outcomes of immunocompromised patients receiving C/T for multidrug-resistant (MDR)
methodsThis was a 14-center retrospective cohort study of adult immunocompromised inpatients treated for ≥24 hours with C/T for MDR
resultsSixty-nine patients were included; 84% received immunosuppressive agents, 68% had a history of SOT, and 29% had diseases increasing susceptibility to infection. The mean patient age was 57 ± 14 years, and the median (interquartile range) patient Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II and Charlson Comorbidity Index scores were 18 (13) and 5 (4), respectively, with 46% receiving intensive care unit care at C/T initiation. The most frequent infection sources were respiratory (56%) and wound (11%). All-cause 30-day mortality was 19% (n = 13), with clinical cure achieved in 47 (68%) patients. Clinical cure was numerically higher (75% vs 30%) in pneumonia patients who received 3-g pneumonia regimens vs 1.5-g regimens.
conclusionsOf 69 immunocompromised patients treated with C/T for MDR
