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

The spread of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) poses a public health threat worldwide. We aimed to compare the mortality rates between the carbapenemase-producing (CP) and non-CP CRE bacteremia. We conducted a retrospective cohort study in patients with CRE bacteremia after propensity score (PS) matching. We performed a Kaplan-Meier curve analysis to identify the cumulative hazard for 30-day mortality. There were 318 patients with CRE between January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2022. There were 252 patients with CP-CRE and 66 with non-CP-RE, respectively. Before PS matching, the 30-day mortality rates were 40.9% in the non-CP-CRE group and 53.2% in the CP-CRE group (p = 0.097). In patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), the mortality rates were 49.0% in the non-CP-CRE group and 57.1% in the CP-CRE group (p = 0.340). After PS matching, the hazard ratio (HR) for mortality in the CP-CRE group was 1.49 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.74-3.03), p = 0.266). In ICU patients, the HR of CP-CRE was 1.11 (95% CI 0.36-3.39, p = 0.860). The Kaplan-Meier curve for 30-day mortality showed no difference in cumulative hazard. After PS matching, there was no difference in 30-day mortality between patients with CP-CRE and non-CP-CRE bacteremia.
