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

Background: The incidence of carbapenem-resistant organism (CRO) infections is increasing in children. However, pediatric-specific treatment strategies present unique challenges. Ceftazidime/avibactam is a β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination, showing adequate efficiency against CRO isolates. However, clinical data on the efficacy of ceftazidime/avibactam in children are still lacking. Methods: This was a retrospective study of children (aged <18 years) infected with confirmed or suspected carbapenem-resistant pathogens and treated with ceftazidime-avibactam at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between 2020 and 2022. Results: We identified 38 children aged 14 (5.0-16.3) years; 20 (52.6%) had hematologic malignancies. 25 children with confirmed CRO infections were administered ceftazidime-avibactam as targeted therapy. The median treatment was 10 (6.0-16.5) days. Among them, 24 had infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) (18 carbapenem-resistant Conclusion: Ceftazidime-avibactam is important for improving survival, and clinical response in children with infections caused by CRO.
