Therapeutic Options and Outcomes for the Treatment of Neonates and Preterms with Gram-Negative Multidrug-Resistant Bacteria: A Systematic Review.
Review in Antibiotics (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
(1) Background: Infections caused by multidrug-resistant (MDR) or extensively drug-resistant (XDR) bacteria represent a challenge in the neonatal population due to disease severity and limited therapeutic possibilities compared to adults. The spread of antimicrobial resistance and drug availability differ significantly worldwide. The incidence of MDR bacteria has constantly risen, causing an increase in morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs in both high-income (HIC) and low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Therefore, more evidence is needed to define the possible use of newer molecules and to optimize combination regimens for the oldest antimicrobials in neonates. This systematic review aims to identify and critically appraise the current antimicrobial treatment options and the relative outcomes for MDR and XDR Gram-negative bacterial infections in the neonatal population. (2) Methods: A literature search for the treatment of MDR Gram-negative bacterial infections in neonates (term and preterm) was conducted in Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library. Studies reporting data on single-patient-level outcomes related to a specific antibiotic treatment for MDR Gram-negative bacterial infection in children were included. Studies reporting data from adults and children were included if single-neonate-level information could be identified. We focused our research on four MDROs:
