Genetic and Phenotypic Characterization of Multidrug-Resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae from Liver Abscess.

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
Cooccurrence of multidrug resistant (MDR) and hypervirulence phenotypes in liver abscess-causing Klebsiella pneumoniae (LAKp) would pose a major threat to public health. However, relatively little information is available on the genomic and phenotypic characteristics of this pathogen. This study aimed to investigate the virulence and resistance phenotype and genotype of MDR LAKp strains from 2016 to 2020. We collected 18 MDR LAKp strains from 395 liver abscess samples and characterized these strains using antimicrobial susceptibility test, string test, mucoviscosity assay, biofilm formation assay, Galleria mellonella killing assay, and whole-genome sequencing. Besides, phylogenetic and comparative genomic analyses were performed on these MDR LAKp, along with 94 LAKp genomes from global sources. Most of these MDR LAKp strains exhibited resistance to cephalosporins, quinolones, and chloramphenicol. Virulence assays revealed that only half of MDR LAKp strains exhibited higher virulence than classical MDR strain K. pneumoniae MGH78578. Importantly, we identified three ST11 KL64 hypervirulence carbapenem-resistant strains carrying
