Distribution and Drug Resistance of Bacterial Infection in Hospitalized Patients at the Respiratory Department before and after the COVID-19 Pandemic in Guangzhou, China.
Article in Microorganisms, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Since COVID-19 might have a lasting impact on global public health, it is crucial to analyze its effect on drug-resistant bacterial infections in the respiratory system for the prevention and control of hospital infections. This work aimed to investigate the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the clinical distribution and antibiotic resistance of bacterial infection among hospitalized patients in the respiratory unit in order to establish strategies to control antibiotic-resistant infections. Electronic clinical data registry records from 2018 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 36,829 clinical specimens, including sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, blood, and urine, were collected from 16,073 patients admitted to the Guangzhou First People's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2022. Among them, 2209 samples were culture-positive. The bacterial isolation rates of different types of samples showed a similar trend from 2019 to 2022, with an increase in 2020 and 2022 and a decrease in 2021. Different bacterial species were separated from different types of samples. The most reported pathogens were identified in sputum samples. Gram-positive isolates were prevalent in urine samples, while Gram-negative bacilli were the predominant pathogenic bacteria isolated from respiratory tract and blood samples.
