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

objectiveThe objective of the present study was to compare the suitability of the B BACTEC™ Lytic/10 Anaerobic/F versus B BACTEC™ Plus Aerobic/F vials at the time of both Enterobacteriaceae recovery rate and detection time.

methodsProspective observational study from September 2018 to January 2019 in which 150 bacteremia. The samples were incubated in the automated BD BACTEC ™ FX system (Becton Dickison).

resultsA total of 180 Enterobacteriaceae were isolated: 93 B BACTEC™ Plus Aerobic/F and 87 from B BACTEC™ Lytic/10 Anaerobic/F belonging to 106 patients The urinary focus was the most frequent origin. The average detection time in both cases was not more than 15 hours.

conclusionsThe combination of both bottles seems to be the best diagnostic strategy, thus reducing the detection time as well as increasing the recovery of Enterobacteriaceae. The combination of both vials could be implemented especially in selected situation of special urgency such as the sepsis code or critical patients.
