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

β-Lactam antibiotics remain one of the most effective therapeutics to treat infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria (GNB). However, since ancient times, bacteria have developed multiple resistance mechanisms toward this class of antibiotics including overexpression of β-lactamases, suppression of porins, outer membrane impermeability, overexpression of efflux pumps, and target modifications. To cope with these challenges and to extend the lifetime of existing β-lactam antibiotics, β-lactamase inhibitors are combined with β-lactam antibiotics to prevent antibiotic inactivation by β-lactamases. The combination therapy of an outer membrane permeabilizer with β-lactam antibiotics is an alternative approach to overcoming bacterial resistance of β-lactams in GNB. This approach is of particular interest for pathogens with highly impermeable outer membranes like
