Evaluation of risk factors for 14-day and 30-day mortality among treatment regimens against Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to carbapenem but susceptible to traditional antipseudomonal non-carbapenem β-lactam agents.

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
Pseudomonas aeruginosa associated with hospital-acquired infection is often resistant to various antibiotics and is associated with high mortality worldwide. The appropriate treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to carbapenems but susceptible to traditional antipseudomonal non-carbapenem β-lactam agents (Car-R/NonCar-S P. aeruginosa) remains unclear. This retrospective study evaluated risk factors for 14-day and 30-day mortality among treatment regimens against Car-R/NonCar-S P. aeruginosa. This study enrolled 180 patients with Car-R/NonCar-S P. aeruginosa infection at Phramongkutklao Hospital between January 2019 and December 2023. The 14-day and 30-day mortality rates were 18.3% and 28.9%, respectively. Bloodstream infection (OR 1.97, 95% CI 0.88-4.43), septic shock (OR 3.3, 95% CI 1.30-8.40), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II < 14 (OR 0.13, 95% CI 0.03-0.54), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) <7 (OR 0.25, 95% CI 0.11-0.56), and Pitt bacteremia score <4 (OR 0.16, 95% CI 0.05-0.47) were associated with 14-day mortality. There was a higher 14-day and 30-day mortality in patients treated with piperacillin/tazobactam or aminoglycosides but there was no significant difference among antipseudomonal antimicrobial agents in the treatment of Car-R/NonCar-S P. aeruginosa infection. We supported the use of traditional antipseudomonal β-lactam agents to treat Car-R/NonCar-S P. aeruginosa infections, however the use of piperacillin/tazobactam might be concerned in some cases and further investigations were needed.
