Genomic virulence markers are associated with severe outcomes in patients with Pseudomonas aeruginosa bloodstream infection.
Article in Communications medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
backgroundPseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) bloodstream infection (BSI) is a common healthcare-associated complication linked to antimicrobial resistance and high mortality. Ongoing clinical trials are exploring novel anti-virulence agents, yet studies on how bacterial virulence affects PA infection outcomes is conflicting and data from real-world clinical populations is limited.
methodsWe studied a multicentre cohort of 773 adult patients with PA BSI consecutively collected during 7-years from sites in Europe and Australia. Comprehensive clinical data and whole-genome sequencing of all bacterial strains were obtained.
resultsBased on the virulence genotype, we identify several virulence clusters, each showing varying proportions of multidrug-resistant phenotypes. Genes tied to biofilm synthesis and epidemic clones ST175 and ST235 are associated with mortality, while the type III secretion system is associated with septic shock. Adding genomic biomarkers to machine learning models based on clinical data indicates improved prediction of severe outcomes in PA BSI patients.
conclusionsThese findings suggest that virulence markers provide prognostic information with potential applications in guiding adjuvant sepsis treatments.
