Comparative Evaluation of Colistin Broth Disk Elution Method With Two Commercially Available Systems for Colistin Susceptibility Testing Against Carbapenem-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae: A Single-Center Exploratory Study.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThe purpose is to explore the diagnostic utility of colistin broth disk elution (CBDE) as a simple and reliable method of colistin susceptibility testing. MATERIALS AND
methodsAn exploratory study was undertaken in a tertiary care teaching hospital in Uttarakhand, from September 2021 to March 2022, after obtaining approval from the Institute Ethics Committee. Twenty-five non-repetitive carbapenem-resistant
resultsThe in vitro colistin resistance rates varied from 8% by BD Phoenix system to 20% by Mikrolatest kit and 32% by CBDE, respectively. For colistin susceptibility, a higher CA was observed between the BD Phoenix system and CBDE (64.71%) than between the Mikrolatest kit and CBDE (31.60%). Overall, a statistically significant fair agreement was observed between the BD Phoenix system and CBDE (Kappa: 0.312; 95% CI: 0.036 to 0.660) and Mikrolatest MIC colistin kit and CBDE (Kappa: 0.286; 95% CI: 0.111 to 0.683), respectively.
conclusionsIn vitro colistin testing remains a significant challenge globally. Although the present study results are inconclusive due to the small sample size, we should conduct multi-centric studies globally, taking a considerable sample size representing different Gram-negative bacilli to generate conclusive evidence on the utility of CBDE as a reliable method of colistin susceptibility testing.
