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

Introduction: Carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Methods: The resistance and virulence phenotypes were determined by using antimicrobial susceptibility testing and the mouse bacteremia infection model, respectively. Plasmid profiles were investigated by S1 nuclease pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (S1-PFGE) and Southern blotting, conjugation assay, and whole genome sequencing (WGS). Bioinformatics tools were used to uncover the genetic features of the resistance and virulence hybrid plasmids. Results: Two ST11-KL64 CRKP clinical isolates (KP18-3-8 and KP18-2079), which exhibited enhanced virulence compared with the classic CRKP, were detected positive for Conclusion: Our studies further highlight co-evolution of the virulence and resistance plasmids in ST11-CRKP isolates. Close surveillance of such hybrid virulence plasmids in clinical
