Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Various MRSA Clinical Isolates and the Impact of Glycopeptide MICs on Clinical and Microbiological Outcomes.
Article in Infectious diseases & clinical microbiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: While vancomycin has remained the mainstay of the treatment for methicillin-resistant Materials and Methods: This retrospective cohort study, conducted between 2013 and 2017, evaluated the susceptibility of MRSA strains isolated from various clinical samples to antistaphylococcal antibiotics using the gradient strip method. The clinical and laboratory features of patients infected with MRSA isolates with elevated glycopeptide MICs (>1 mg/L) and with isolates that had low glycopeptide MICs (≤1 mg/L) were compared. Results: A total of 104 patients infected with MRSA strains were included in this study. Male sex (odds ratio [OR]=2.48, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.01-6.10, Conclusion: This study showed that the critical MIC value, which suggested treatment failure as well as microbiological failure in the teicoplanin-treated MRSA infections, was >0.75 mg/L rather than >1 mg/L in our study cohort. The identification of high-risk patients;for treatment failures and mortality considering gradient strip method MIC values is crucial for the effective management of MRSA infections.
