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 and Objectives: Plasmid-mediated AmpC producers are considered an increasing concern. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of plasmid-mediated AmpC β-lactamases (pAmpCs) in Materials and Methods: A total of 228 clinical isolates of Results: We identified 18 pAmpC-KP isolates among the 228 isolates (7.9%): 12 DHA (66.6%) and 6 CMY (33.3%). In the present study only 47% of cefoxitin-resistant isolates were pAmpC producers. The sensitivity of CDT, DDST, and M3DT was 89%, 67% and 100% and the specificity was 90%, 90% and 85%, respectively. In addition, M3DT displayed a higher rate of efficiency (92%) than CDT (89%) and DDST (79%) in detecting plasmid-meditated AmpC producers. Conclusion: DHA was the most prevalent pAmpC beta-lactamase in this study. DDST and CDT tests proved inefficient to detect two and six pAmpC producers, respectively, while M3DT represented the best overall performance.
