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

purposeCharacterization of different uropathogenic PATIENTS AND

methodsThis study included 90 UPEC strains recovered from CAUTI and Com-UTI. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested by the Kirby-Bauer method and extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production was confirmed using the combined disk. The biofilm formation was tested using the microtiter plate assay. Main

resultsAntibiotic resistance of UPEC strains showed a similar high resistance in CAUTI and Com-UTI. Isolates from CAUTI significantly produced biofilm higher than Com-UTI strains (68.9% vs 44.4%). In CAUTI and Com-UTI isolates, phylogroup A was the commonest (53.3% vs 48.9%, respectively). PAI IV536 was the most common in the strains from CAUTI (71.1%) and Com-UTI (73.3%). No significant relationship was detected between the studied characters and different phylogroups except the significant resistance to cefotaxime, ceftazidime and aztreonam among phylogroups from CAUTI isolates.

conclusionIncreased antibiotic resistance and ESBLs were detected in UPEC strains from CAUTI and Com-UTI. The strains from CAUTI significantly produced biofilm higher than Com-UTI strains. Phylogroup A was the predominate phylogroup and PAI IV536 was the most prevalent marker in all phylogroups from both types of UTI.
