Colistin Susceptibility Testing by Colistin Broth Disk Elution MIC Method among Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative Blood Culture Clinical Isolates in a Tertiary Care Setting, East Delhi, India.

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
Background: Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern for bloodstream infections (BSIs), especially with the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria. In this study, we aimed to assess the pattern of colistin susceptibility using the colistin broth disc elution (CBDE) method among carbapenem-resistant gram-negative clinical isolates from blood cultures in a high burden tertiary healthcare setting in East Delhi. Methods: A total of 106 carbapenem-resistant gram-negative clinical isolates were tested. The most common isolates were Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter species, and Klebsiella oxytoca by CBDE method. Result: All the carbapenem resistant gram-negative bacterial blood culture isolates showed intermediate colistin susceptibility. This was statistically significant by chi-square test (p<0.5). Conclusion: This study highlights the need to monitor colistin resistance trends in the face of increasing antimicrobial resistance. Accurate surveillance of emerging colistin resistance is crucial for effective management of BSIs caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria.
