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

Introduction: Mortality due to carbapenem-resistant Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on consecutive non-repetitive patients with CRPA infections isolated from seven major hospitals from northwest of Iran. We evaluated different risk factors and characteristics of bacteria for the death or survival of patients. Results: In this study, 116 CRPA isolates were obtained from patients admitted to seven hospitals. Forty-one (35.3%) patients were enrolled in the study of mortality risk factors. Significant risk factors associated with mortality included the site of infection, hospitalization in different wards, the use of invasive devices, and the type of carbapenem resistance mechanisms. Conclusions: ICU admission, the use of mechanical ventilation and chest tube and infection with pandrug-resistant strains were the most important factors in increasing mortality due to CRPA infection. These results suggested that the clinicians should emphasize the proper use of antibiotic and invasive procedures.
