Risk factors for carbapenem-resistant
Article in Journal of preventive medicine and hygiene, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Aim: This study investigated the risk factors for the development of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infections in adult patients in Intensive Care Units (ICUs). Methods: A multicentre case-control study was conducted in ICUs in three tertiary hospitals in Turkey. The cases were patients culture-confirmed CRKP and a condition associated with healthcare-associated infections. Two controls were randomly selected for each case from among all other patients with an ICU stay at least as long as that of the corresponding case-patient. A proportional semiparametric subdistribution hazards regression model was used to assess risk factors for CRKP infection. ICU discharge and non-CRKP-related deaths were treated as competing risks. Results: A total of 120 patients, 44 cases and 76 controls were included in the analysis. Of the controls, 32 were discharged from the ICU and 44 died without acquiring CRKP infection. Endotracheal intubation (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.96, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.00-3.868) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (HR: 1.57, 95% CI: 0.888-2.806) were associated with an increased risk of CRKP infection, whereas carbapenem exposure (HR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.190-1.1175) and the presence of a nasogastric tube (HR: 0.49, 95% CI: 0.277-0.884) were associated with a decreased risk of CRKP infection. Conclusions: Enteral nutrition support via a nasogastric tube may be associated with a reduced risk of CRKP-resistant infections in ICU patients. This hypothesis should be tested with a well-designed study.
