Individualized active surveillance for carbapenem-resistant microorganisms using Xpert Carba-R in intensive care units.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 antibiotics are widely used in ICU, and the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant microorganisms (CRO) has increased. This study aimed to assess the role of individualized active surveillance using Xpert Carba-R of carbapenem resistance genes on CRO risk. A total of 3,765 patients were admitted to the ICU of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University between 2020 and 2022. The presence of carbapenem resistance genes were monitored using Xpert Carba-R, and CRO incidence was assigned as the investigated outcome. Of 3,765 patients, 390 manifested the presence of CRO, representing a prevalence of 10.36%. Active surveillance using Xpert Carba-R was associated with a lower CRO risk (odds ratio [OR]: 0.77; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.62-0.95; P = 0.013), especially for carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter + carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (OR: 0.79; 95% CI 0.62-0.99; P = 0.043), carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (OR: 0.56; 95% CI 0.40-0.79; P = 0.001), and carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (OR: 0.65; 95% CI 0.47-0.90; P = 0.008). Individualized active surveillance using Xpert Carba-R may be associated with a reduction in the overall CRO incidence in ICU. Further prospective studies should be performed to verify these conclusions and guide further management of patients in ICU.
