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: Intensive care units (ICU) are the epicenter of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and patients' infections are mainly caused by Gram-negative bacteria (GNB). Objective: To describe the frequency and trends in AMR of GNB deriving from the clinical samples of ICU patients at a tertiary care hospital in Mérida, Yucatán. Material and methods: Study which included the review of laboratory reports of all bacteriological samples collected from patients admitted to neonatal, pediatric and adult ICU from January 1 2019 to December 31 2021. Results: 433 GNB isolates were recovered, with Klebsiella pneumoniae being the most predominant isolate (n = 117; 27.02%). The majority of GNB were recovered from bronchial secretions (n = 163). Overall, GNB showed high resistance rates to ampicillin (89.48%), ampicillin/sulbactam (66.85%), cephalosporins (58.52-93.81%), tobramycin (58.06%), and tetracycline (61.73%). Among GNB, 73.90% and 68.53% exhibited multidrug-resistant, and highly resistant microorganisms' profiles, respectively, and 47.54% of Acinetobacter baumannii exhibited an extensively drug-resistant profile. A total of 80.33% of A. baumannii was carbapenem-resistant, and 83.76% of K. pneumoniae strains were ESBL-producing. Conclusion: Our data could be helpful to improve the empirical therapy and the infection-control program.
