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

This study aimed to conduct a retrospective Middle East systematic review and meta-analysis on the prevalence and antibiotic susceptibility pattern for this microorganism isolated from cystic fibrosis patients. We searched MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library, SCOPUS, and Web of Science (ISI) to identify studies that reported the prevalence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, and antibiotic resistance patterns. To assess the quality of publications was used of a checklist provided by the Joanna Briggs Institute. Finally, the data was analyzed by comprehensive meta-analysis software. The studied populations comprised children and young, and adult CF patients. Patients were aged between 3 months-65 years. A higher percentage of CF patients were males. Pseudomonas aeruginosa frequency varied between 5.9 and 76.2% in the studies included. The combined prevalence of P. aeruginosa was reported 34.3%. The lowest level resistance of P. aeruginosa was toward colistin (0%-13.3%) and ticarcillin (3.9%-24%). Our study showed the prevalence of P. aeruginosa and antibiotic resistance are almost high, while colistin and ticarcillin are the best antibiotics to decrease postantibiotic efects (PAEs) in CF patients from the Middle East. Therefore, physicians should pay more attention to therapeutic protocols to prevent further resistance.
