Prevalence and molecular characteristics of polymyxin-resistant
Article in Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Introduction: Polymyxin-resistant Methods: Polymyxin-resistant Results: Of the 1,216 isolates collected, 32 (2.6%) across 12 wards were polymyxin-resistant (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) range, PMB 4-256 mg/ml, and colistin 4 ≥ 16 mg/ ml). A total of 28 (87.5%) of the polymyxin-resistant isolates had reduced susceptibility to imipenem and meropenem (MIC ≥ 16 mg/ml). Of the 32 patients, 15 patients received PMB treatment and 20 survived before discharge. The phylogenetic tree of these isolates showed they belonged to different clones and had multiple origins. The polymyxin-resistant Discussion: In our study, a low prevalence of polymyxin-resistant
