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

Background: Aim: The aim of this study was to analyse the dissemination of Methods: Clinical strains were collected from two buildings in a tertiary-care hospital in Monterrey, Mexico. After species identification by MALDI-TOF MS and PCR, antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by disk diffusion and microdilution methods, carbapenemase-encoding genes (OXA-23, -24, -51, and -58) were searched, and clonal diversity was analysed by PFGE and MLST. Findings: Among 204 specimens, 87.3% and 50.5% of the isolates were classified as multidrug-resistant (MDR) and difficult-to-treat-resistant (DTR), respectively. The OXA-24 gene was detected in 95% of the isolates. Most isolates (n=181) were grouped into 15 clones, four which predominated and disseminated after five months. Among ST detected (ST1694, ST758, ST124, and ST490), ST124, which belongs to the high-risk CC636 clonal complex, is reported for the first time in Mexico. Conclusions: Long-term persistence and dissemination of
