Assessing the burden of disease of gram-negative bloodstream infections in a Brazilian hospital: A retrospective cohort study from 2015 to 2019.
Article in IJID regions, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: This study aimed to estimate the disease burden of BSIs caused by gram-negative bacteria (GNB-BSIs) in a Brazilian hospital from 2015 to 2019, measured in disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs). Methods: A retrospective cohort study of adult patients with GNB-BSI was conducted from April 01, 2015 to March 31, 2019. This study was carried out in a 356-bed private hospital with a 68-bed medical intensive care unit located in Salvador, Brazil. Demographic and clinical data were collected through a review of medical records. DALYs were estimated using Monte Carlo Simulations, using life tables for Brazilians estimated for 2020 and the Global Burden of Diseases 2010 (GBD 2010). Results: A total of 519 GNB-BSI episodes in 498 individuals were identified. The mean age was 59.92 ± 17.97 years, with 61.1% being male. The most common bacterial infections were Conclusions: The persistently high DALYs associated with CR-GNB raise alarming concerns, potentially leading to over 300 deaths per 1000 patient days in the coming years. These findings underscore the urgency of addressing GNB-BSI as a significant public health issue in Brazil. These results are expected to provide helpful information for public health policymakers to prioritize interventions for infections due to antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
