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

Background: Since the emergence of the pandemic of SARS-CoV-2, a high reported incidence of VAP in COVID-19 sustained by carbapenem resistant Materials and methods: We retrospectively collected COVID-19 patients who developed CRAB-VAP - defined according to Center for Diseases Control (CDC) 2020 criteria and European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) or Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) guidelines - to describe characteristics and outcome. Results: Among 21 patients with CRAB-VAP in COVID-19, median age was 66 years (IQR 41-80). Median time of VAP-onset was 7 days (IQR 0-28 days) from ICU - admission and 76.2% had septic shock. Treatment regimens were all colistin-based, in 28% (n=6) including ampicillin/sulbactam and rifampicin. In three cases, cefiderocol was started as rescue. Survival rate at 28-days was 35% (n=7). Conclusion: Non-fermenting Gram-negative bacteria are an emerging aetiology of VAP in COVID-19 patients. This underscores the urgent need for proper microbiological identification to address therapies and infection control protocols.
