Acinetobacter baumannii infection in intensive care unit: analysis of distribution and drug resistance.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe isolation rate and drug resistance rate of Acinetobacter baumannii (A.baumannii) have increased over the years, which has become one of the main causes of infection and death in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Analysis of the distribution characteristics, drug resistance and influencing factors of A.baumannii in ICU could provide basis and reference for the infection prevention and clinical treatment. METHODS AND
resultsIn this study, patients diagnosed with A.baumannii infection in ICU from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected. Samples of patients were collected for bacterial culture, drug sensitivity test analysis and drug resistant gene detection of A.baumannii. A total of 197 strains of A.baumannii were cultured in 2021, which was 18 strains more than in 2020. The specimens were mainly from lower respiratory tract secretions, and the isolated strains were multi-drug resistant. The resistance of isolates to tobramycin, gentamicin, and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole in 2021 showed a significant increase compared to 2020, while there were no significant differences observed in other resistance changes. The prevalence of multi-drug resistant A.baumannii in ICU remains high. Among them, all imipenem-resistant A.baumannii strains carried OXA-23 gene.
conclusionClinical treatment should use antibiotics reasonably based on the characteristics of bacterial resistance, and strengthen the prevention and control of hospital infection, pay more attention to the disinfection and isolation to reduce the risk of cross infection.
