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

purposeThe worldwide emergence and clonal spread of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) is of great concern. In the present study, we determined the mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance, virulence gene repertoire and genomic relatedness of CRAB isolates circulating in Serbian hospitals.

methodsCRAB isolates were analyzed using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) for the presence of antimicrobial resistance-encoding genes, virulence factors-encoding genes, mobile genetic elements and genomic relatedness. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was done by disk diffusion and broth microdilution methods.

resultsEleven isolates exhibited an MDR resistance phenotype, while four of them were XDR. MIC

conclusionWGS elucidated the resistance and virulence profiles of CRABs isolated from clinical samples in Serbian hospitals and genomic relatedness of CRAB isolates from Serbia and globally distributed CRABs.
