New evidence in severe pneumonia: imipenem/ cilastatin/relebactam.
Review in Revista espanola de quimioterapia : publicacion oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Quimioterapia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Imipenem combined with beta-lactamase inhibitor relebactam (IMI/REL) has an extensive bactericidal activity against Gram-negative pathogens producing class A or class C beta-lactamases, not active against class B and class D. The phase 3 clinical trial (RESTORE-IMI-2), double-blind, randomized, evaluated IMI/REL vs. piperacillin-tazobactam (PIP/TAZ) for treatment of hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) and ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), demonstrated non-inferiority at all-cause mortality at 28 days (15.9% vs 21.3%), favorable clinical response at 7-14 days end of treatment (61% vs 59.8%) and with minor serious adverse effects (26.7% vs 32%). IMI/REL is a therapeutic option in HAP and VAP at approved dosage imipenem 500 mg, cilastatin 500 mg and relebactam 250 mg once every 6h, by an IV infusion over 30 min.
