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

Bacteria acquire β-lactam resistance through a multitude of mechanisms among which production of β-lactamases (enzymes that hydrolyze β-lactams) is the most common, especially in Gram-negatives. Structural changes in the high-molecular-weight, essential penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) are widespread in Gram-positives and increasingly reported in Gram-negatives. PBP-mediated resistance is largely achieved by accumulation of mutation(s) resulting in reduced binding affinities of β-lactams. Herein, we discuss PBP-mediated resistance among ESKAPE pathogens that cause diverse hospital- and community-acquired infections globally.
