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
objectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the microbiological epidemiology of carbapenemase-producing Gram-negative bacilli (CPGNB) isolated from blood during a 5-year period.
methodsA total of 80 isolates from 78 patients were finally included; fifty-five (70.5%) were men and the mean age was 60 years. Detection of carbapenemase production was performed by immunocromatography (IC) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Genotyping was carried-out by pulsedfield gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multi-locus sequence typing (MLST), and characterization of carbapenemase-producing isolates was performed by whole genome sequencing (WGS).
resultsThe main microorganisms isolated were K. pneumoniae (29.4%), E. cloacae (28.2%), A. baumannii (17.9%) and P. aeruginosa (15.3%). Overall, the most common carbapenemase in Enterobacterales was OXA-48 group (57.7%). The most common carbapenemase in non-fermenting bacilli was OXA-23 (60.8%). The most common ST in K. pneumoniae producing OXA-48 types was ST45 and in E. cloacae ST114, while in E. cloacae producing VIM types was ST78. In OXA-23 types, the most common clone in A. baumannii was ST2, whereas in P. aeruginosa producing IMP types was ST253.
conclusionsThere was an increase in cases recorded in the years of highest incidence and severity of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, with a significant number of cases in patients admitted to the ICU. All bacteremias caused by A. baumannii were caused by the same clone, and 12 of the 14 cases caused by A. baumannii were part of outbreaks in the ICU.
