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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to clarify the pattern of antibiotic resistance in pediatric urinary tract infections (UTIs). MATERIALS AND

methodsWe analyzed the data of entire urine culture tests and antibiotic susceptibility tests performed on hospitalized patients for febrile UTI at the Uijeongbu St. Mary's Hospital during 2010-2020. A retrospective analysis was performed using medical records of urine culture results and antibiotic susceptibility results in patients with UTIs.

resultsWe performed urine cultures from 2,491 patients, and identified bacterial types in 1,651 cases. We found that the resistance rates to ampicillin, ampicillin/sulbactam, cefazolin, gentamicin, piperacillin, tobramycin, and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole were already over 20% in 2010. The resistance rates to many other antibiotics also steadily increased over time. Among the antibiotics tested in 2020, only amikacin, cefoxitin, imipenem, piperacillin/tazobactam, and tigecycline showed the resistance rates below 20%. Noticeably, ciprofloxacin also showed an increase in the resistance rate from 7.3% in 2010 (S 139 vs. R 11) to 27.78% in 2019 (S 104 vs. R 40) and even over 30% (33.96%) in 2020 (S 35 vs. R 18).

conclusionsAntibiotic resistance is a serious problem in pediatric UTIs. In the treatment of pediatric UTIs, more caution is needed in the use of antibiotics. It may be necessary to apply appropriate antibiotic management programs such as antibiotics steward program for pediatric patients. Failure of a proper response strategy coping with antibiotic resistance may accelerate the resistance crisis.
