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

Objectives: Methods: Samples were cultured for Results: Fidaxomicin was the most active antimicrobial (all isolates geometric mean MIC = 0.03 mg/L) with no evidence of reduced susceptibility. Metronidazole MICs were elevated among RT027 (1.87 mg/L) and RT181 clinical isolates (1.03 mg/L). RT027 and RT181 had elevated geometric mean moxifloxacin MICs (14.49 mg/L, 16.88 mg/L); clindamycin (7.5 mg/L, 9.1 mg/L) and rifampicin (0.6 mg/L, 21.5 mg/L). Five isolates (RT002, RT010 and RT016) were metronidazole resistant (MIC = 8 mg/L) and 10 (RT027; RT198) had intermediate resistance (4 mg/L). Metronidazole MICs were not elevated in animal isolates. Increased geometric mean vancomycin MICs were observed among RT078, mostly isolated from animals, but there was no resistance (MIC ≥ 4 mg/L). Clinical and animal isolates of multiple RTs showed resistance to moxifloxacin and clindamycin. No resistance to imipenem or meropenem was observed. Conclusion: Increased antimicrobial resistance was detected in eastern Europe and mostly associated with RT027 and related emerging RT181, while clinical isolates from northern and western Europe had the lowest general levels of resistance.
