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

Carbapenemase-producing in Enterobacterales (CPE) represent a critical health concern worldwide, including in Switzerland, leading to very limited therapeutic options. Therefore, our aim was to evaluate the susceptibility to the novel ß-lactam/ß-lactamase inhibitor combinations ceftazidime-avibactam, meropenem-vaborbactam, and imipenem-relebactam of CPE isolates recovered in Switzerland from 2018 to 2020. A total of 150 clinical CPE were studied including mainly Klebsiella pneumoniae (n = 61, 40.3%) and Escherichia coli (n = 53, 35.3%). The distribution of carbapenemases was as follows: KPC-like (32%), OXA-48-like (32%), NDM-like (24%), combinations of carbapenemases (10%), VIM-1 producers (n = 2), and a single IMI-1 producer. Overall, 77% of the strains were susceptible to meropenem-vaborbactam, 63% was susceptible to ceftazidime-avibactam, and 62% susceptible to imipenem-relebactam. Those data may contribute to optimize the choice of first line therapy for treating infections due to CPE.
