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

The global distribution of carbapenemases such as KPC, OXA-48, and metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) gives cause for concern, as these enzymes are not inhibited by classical β-lactamase inhibitors (BLIs). The current development of new inhibitors is one of the most promising highlights for the treatment of multidrug-resistant bacteria. The activity of cefepime in combination with the novel BLIs zidebactam, taniborbactam, and enmetazobactam was studied in a collection of 400 carbapenemase-producing
