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

Ceftazidime is a 3rd generation cephalosporin active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Avibactam is an inhibitor of class A, C and some class D β-lactamases. The antibacterial spectrum of ceftazidime-avibactam covers 95% of P. aeruginosa isolates and >99% of enterobacteria, including strains carrying extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs). Selection of resistant mutants in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae strains producing KPC-3 or KPC-2 after exposure to ceftazidime-avibactam has been described by the appearance of one or more amino acid changes in the Ω-loop of the β-lactamase. These strains usually regain susceptibility to meropenem. There is evidence of a shorter multidrug-resistant organisms colonization period in patients treated with this antimicrobial, which could be beneficial in the treatment of infections caused by bacteria carrying ESBLs or carbapenemases.
