Quick detection of causative bacteria in cases of acute cholangitis and cholecystitis using a multichannel gene autoanalyzer.
Article in Surgery today, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purposesAcute cholangitis and cholecystitis can become severe conditions as a result of inappropriate therapeutic administration and thereafter become increasingly resistant to antimicrobial treatment. The simultaneous detection of the bacterial nucleic acid and antimicrobial resistance gene is covered by the national health insurance program in Japan for sepsis. In this study, we evaluate the use of a multichannel gene autoanalyzer (Verigene system) for the quick detection of causative bacteria in cases of acute cholangitis and cholecystitis.
methodsThis study included 108 patients diagnosed with acute cholangitis or cholecystitis between June 2015 and November 2018. A bacterial culture test and Verigene assay were used to evaluate the bile samples.
resultsThe most commonly isolated bacteria were Escherichia coli, which includes six extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli. Among the patients with positive bile cultures, bacteria were detected in 35.7% of cases via the Verigene system. The detection rates of the Verigene system significantly increased when the number of bacterial colonies was ≥ 10
conclusionsThe Verigene system might be a new method for the quick detection of causative bacteria in patients with infectious acute cholangitis and cholecystitis.
