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

backgroundFosfomycin has been proven to be a vital choice to treat infection caused by multidrug resistance bacteria, especially carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). However, fosfomycin resistant cases has been reported gradually. In this study, we reported the fosfomycin-resistant rate in CRKP strains and further revealed the molecular mechanisms in resistance gene dissemination.

resultsA total of 294 non-duplicated CRKP strains were collected. And 55 fosfomyin-resistant strains were detected, 94.5% of which were clustered to sequence type (ST) 11 by PCR followed up sequencing. PFGE further revealed two major groups and four singletons. The positive rates of genes responsible to fosfomycin and carbapenem resistance were 81.8% (fosA3), 12.7% (fosA5) and 94.5% (bla

conclusionsAlthough the resistant rate of CRKP to fosfomycin is relatively low in our area, considering its gene is located on transferrable plasmid and inserted in IS structure, continuous monitoring is still needed.
