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: Bloodstream infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria represent a major therapeutic challenge to clinicians worldwide. This study examined the epidemiology of carbapenem and colistin resistance in Methods: Adult patients with bloodstream infections caused by Results: 585 non-repeat bloodstream infections due to Conclusion: The prevalence of carbapenem resistance and carbapenem-colistin dual resistance in Gram-negative blood culture isolates from patients with bloodstream infections is unacceptably high. Patients with bloodstream infections due to carbapenem-resistant isolates had substantially higher mortality.
