Cefiderocol, a Siderophore Cephalosporin, as a Treatment Option for Infections Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacterales.
Review in Infectious diseases and therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 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
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) remain a significant public health threat, and, despite recent approvals, new antibiotics are needed. Severe infections caused by CRE, such as nosocomial pneumonia and bloodstream infections, are associated with a relatively high risk of morbidity and mortality. The recent approval of ceftazidime-avibactam, imipenem-relebactam, meropenem-vaborbactam, plazomicin, eravacycline and cefiderocol has broadened the armamentarium for the treatment of patients with CRE infections. Cefiderocol is a siderophore cephalosporin with overall potent in vitro activity against CRE. It is taken up via iron transport channels through active transport, with some entry into bacteria through traditional porin channels. Cefiderocol is relatively stable against hydrolysis by most serine- and metallo-beta-lactamases, including KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP and OXA carbapenemases-the most frequent carbapenemases detected in CRE. The efficacy and safety of cefiderocol has been demonstrated in three randomised, prospective, parallel group or controlled clinical studies in patients at risk of being infected by multidrug-resistant or carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. This paper reviews the in vitro activity, emergence of resistance, preclinical effectiveness, and clinical experience for cefiderocol, and its role in the management of patients with CRE infections.
