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

Ceftolozane-tazobactam (C/T) is a new fifth-generation cephalosporin/beta-lactamase inhibitor combination approved by the Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency for treatment of complicated intraabdominal infections, complicated urinary tract infections, and hospital-acquired pneumonia in adult patients. This review will briefly describe the pharmacology of C/T and focus on the emerging clinical trial and real-world data supporting its current utilization. Additionally, our synthesis of these data over time has set our current usage of C/T at Barnes-Jewish Hospital (BJH). C/T is primarily employed as directed monotherapy at BJH when Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates are identified with resistance to other beta-lactams. C/T can also be used empirically in specific clinical situations at BJH prior to microbiological detection of an antibiotic-resistant P. aeruginosa isolate. These situations include critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting, where there is a high likelihood of infection with multidrug-resistant (MDR) P. aeruginosa; patients failing therapy with a carbapenem; specific patient populations known to be at high risk for infection with MDR P. aeruginosa (e.g., lung transplant and cystic fibrosis patients); and patients know to have previous infection or colonization with MDR P. aeruginosa.
