Relay oral therapy in febrile urinary tract infections caused by extended spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacteriaceae in children: A French multicenter study.
Article in PloS one, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesWe need studies assessing therapeutic options for oral relay in febrile urinary tract infection (FUTI) due to ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (ESBL-E) in children. Amoxicillin-clavulanate/cefixime (AC-cefixime) combination seems to be a suitable option. We sought to describe the risk of recurrence at 1 month after the end of treatment for FUTI due to ESBL-E according to the oral relay therapy used. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively identified children <18 years who were included in a previous prospective observational multicentric study on managing FUTI due to ESBL-E between 2014 and 2017 in France. We collected whether children who received cotrimoxazole, ciprofloxacin or the AC-cefixime combination as the oral relay therapy reported a recurrence within the first month after the end of treatment. Then, we analyzed the susceptibility drug-testing of the strains involved.
resultsWe included 199 children who received an oral relay therapy with cotrimoxazole (n = 72, 36.2%), ciprofloxacin (n = 38, 19.1%) or the AC-cefixime combination (n = 89, 44.7%). Nine (4.5%) patients had a recurrence within the first month after the end of treatment, with no difference between the 3 groups of oral relay (p = 0.8): 4 (5.6%) cotrimoxazole, 2 (5.3%) ciprofloxacin and 3 (3.4%) AC-cefixime combination. Phenotype characterization of 249 strains responsible for FUTI due to ESBL-E showed that 97.6% were susceptible to the AC-cefixime combination.
conclusionsThe AC-cefixime combination represents an interesting therapeutic option for oral relay treatment of FUTI due to ESBL-E as the recurrence rate at 1 month after the end of treatment was the same when compared to cotrimoxazole and ciprofloxacin.
