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

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the antibiotic resistance patterns and clinical distribution of blood culture-positive isolates at Suining Central Hospital between 2018 and 2021. The findings of this study can provide a basis for ensuring rational and effective use of antibiotic therapy in clinical settings. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed the data of 3660 non-repeating strains that tested positive for clinical blood culture, collected from the microbiology laboratory of Suining Central Hospital between January 2018 and December 2021. The identification of bacterial species and their antibiotic resistance patterns were analyzed. Results: The study found that 76.7% of the bacterial strains identified were Gram-negative bacteria, while 23.3% were Gram-positive bacteria. Conclusion: The results of this study show a rising incidence of bacterial antibiotic resistance in positive blood culture specimens at Suining Central Hospital. Clinicians should carefully consider the importance of blood culture antibiotic susceptibility testing to ensure effective treatment. The Department of Microbiology at Suining Central Hospital should regularly analyze the distribution of pathogenic bacteria and antibiotic resistance in blood cultures to ensure the most effective treatment possible.
