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

objectiveIn 2012, the Canary Islands Health Service implemented a new surveillance system for nosocomial infections caused by multi-resistant microorganisms and Clostridioides difficile. This system will make it possible to know the incidence rates of these pathogens, periodically contrast them to monitor their trend and compare them with those of other national and European health institutions.

methodsObservational, prospective study of the density of incidence of multi-resistant pathogens and Clostridioides difficile in the healthcare centers of the Canary Islands Health Service from 2012 to 2019.

resultsThe incidence density of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus infections for 2012 was 1.96 cases per 10,000 stays and decreased to 0.80 in 2019, reaching the lowest figure in the surveillance period. Infections due to carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) showed an upward trend, 0.47 (2014) and 2.35 (2019). The slight upward trend in imipenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections in observed bacteraemias 0.17 (2012) and 0.09 (2019) has been corrected. No cases of infection with vancomycin-resistant enterococci were observed. With regard to C. difficile, an upward trend that began in 2012 has consolidated, producing an increase of 216% in the number of cases detected at the end of the study period.

conclusionsThe most relevant problem detected today is the CPE. The data analyzed in this period showed an evident change in the trend of the multi-resistant pathogens studied. This fact must be confirmed in the future.
