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

Carbapenem-resistant pathogens have been recognized as a health concern as they are both difficult to treat and detect in clinical microbiology laboratories. Researchers are making great efforts to develop highly specific, sensitive, accurate, and rapid diagnostic techniques, required to prevent the spread of these microorganisms and improve the prognosis of patients. In this context, CRISPR-Cas systems are proposed as promising tools for the development of diagnostic methods due to their high specificity; the Cas13a endonuclease can discriminate single nucleotide changes and displays collateral cleavage activity against single-stranded RNA molecules when activated. This technology is usually combined with isothermal pre-amplification reactions in order to increase its sensitivity. We have developed a new LAMP-CRISPR-Cas13a-based assay for the detection of OXA-48 and GES carbapenemases in clinical samples without the need for nucleic acid purification and concentration. To evaluate the assay, we used 68 OXA-48-like-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates as well as 64 Enterobacter cloacae complex GES-6, 14 Pseudomonas aeruginosa GES-5, 9 Serratia marcescens GES-6, 5 P. aeruginosa GES-6, and 3 P. aeruginosa (GES-15, GES-27, and GES-40) and 1 K. pneumoniae GES-2 isolates. The assay, which takes less than 2 h and costs approximately 10 € per reaction, exhibited 100% specificity and sensitivity (99% confidence interval [CI]) for both OXA-48 and all GES carbapenemases.
