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

Metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) have evolved relatively rapidly to become an international public health threat. There are no clinically available β-lactamase inhibitors with activity against MBLs. This may change with the introduction of cefepime-taniborbactam. Herein, we review three manuscripts (S. I. Drusin, C. Le Terrier, L. Poirel, R. A. Bonomo, et al., Antimicrob Agents Chemother 68:e01168-23, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.01168-23; C. Le Terrier, C. Viguier, P. Nordmann, A. J. Vila, and L. Poirel, Antimicrob Agents Chemother 68:e00991-23, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.00991-23; D. Ono, M. F. Mojica, C. R. Bethel, Y. Ishii, et al., Antimicrob Agents Chemother 68:e01332-23, 2024, https://doi.org/10.1128/aac.01332-23) in which investigators describe elegant experiments to explore MBL/taniborbactam interactions and modifications to MBLs, in response, to reduce the affinity of taniborbactam. Challenges with MBL inhibition will not disappear; rather, they will evolve commensurate with advancements in medicinal chemistry.
