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: Ongoing national and international surveillance efforts are critical components of antimicrobial stewardship, resistance monitoring, and drug development programs. In this report, we summarize the results of ceftolozane/tazobactam, imipenem/relebactam, ceftazidime/avibactam and comparator agent testing against 10 509 Enterobacterales and 2524 Methods: MICs were determined by CLSI broth microdilution and interpreted using 2023 CLSI M100 breakpoints. Results: Most Enterobacterales were ceftazidime/avibactam susceptible (>99%), meropenem susceptible (99%) and ceftolozane/tazobactam susceptible (94%). Non-Morganellaceae Enterobacterales were also highly susceptible to imipenem/relebactam (99%). Ceftolozane/tazobactam inhibited 94% of Conclusions: We conclude that in the USA, in 2019-21, carbapenem (meropenem) resistance remained uncommon in Enterobacterales and ceftolozane/tazobactam was more active than both ceftazidime/avibactam and imipenem/relebactam against
