Potential Cost Savings Associated with Targeted Substitution of Current Guideline-Concordant Inpatient Agents with Omadacycline for the Treatment of Adult Hospitalized Patients with Community-Acquired Bacterial Pneumonia at High Risk for

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
introductionApproximately 3% of hospitalized patients with community-acquired bacterial pneumonia (CABP) develop healthcare-associated
methodsA deterministic healthcare-decision analytic model was developed. The model population was hospitalized adult CABP patients with a DRS ≥ 6 across US hospitals (100,000 patients). In the guideline-concordant arm, 14% of CABP patients with DRS ≥ 6 were assumed to develop an HCA-CDI, each costing USD 20,100. In the omadacycline arm, 5 days of therapy was calculated for the entire model population.
resultsThe use of omadacycline in place of guideline-concordant CABP inpatient treatments for CABP patients with DRS ≥ 6 was estimated to result in cost savings of USD 55.4 million annually across US hospitals.
conclusionThe findings of this simulated model suggest that prioritizing the use of omadacycline over current CABP treatments in hospitalized CABP with a DRS ≥ 6 may potentially reduce attributable HCA-CDI costs. The findings are not unique to omadacycline and could be applied to any antibiotic that confers a lower risk of HCA-CDI relative to current CABP inpatient treatments.
