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

This study aimed to investigate the epidemiological characteristics and trends over time of carbapenemase-producing (e.g., KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP, and OXA-48) Gram-negative bacteria (CPGNB). Non-duplicated multi-drug resistant Gram-negative bacteria (MDRGNB) were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April 2019 to February 2023. Species identification of each isolate was performed using the Vitek2 system and confirmed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry according to the manufacturer's instructions. PCR detected carbapenem resistance genes in the strains, strains carrying carbapenem resistance genes were categorized as CPGNB strains after validation by carbapenem inactivation assay. A total of 5705 non-repetitive MDRGNB isolates belonging to 78 different species were collected during the study period, of which 1918 CPGNB were validated, with the respiratory tract being the primary source of specimens. Epidemiologic statistics showed a significant predominance of ICU-sourced strains compared to other departments. Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were the significant CPGNB in Henan, and KPC and NDM were the predominant carbapenemases. Carbapenem-resistant infections in Henan Province showed an overall increasing trend, and the carriage of carbapenemase genes by CPGNB has become increasingly prevalent and complicated. The growing prevalence of CPGNB in the post-pandemic era poses a significant challenge to public safety.
