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 focused on genomic epidemiology of metallo-β-lactamase (MBL)-producing Citrobacter spp. in Poland. It included 118 isolates with VIM (n = 100), NDM (n = 17) or IMP (n = 1) enzymes from 2011 to 19, largely C. freundii (n = 94) of 33 sequence types (STs). Three globally-spread STs were more prevalent, namely ST18 (n = 15), ST8 (n = 11) and ST22 (n = 10), each diversified clonally and by VIM and NDM determinants. Only few outbreaks were evidenced, indicating MBL presence to result mainly from independent acquisitions, consistent with co-identifications of Citrobacter isolates (n = 12) with other MBL-producing Enterobacterales. Despite lower outbreak potential, Citrobacter spp. constitute a significant MBL reservoir, requiring attention and surveillance.
