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

backgroundThe increasing prevalence of infections caused by carbapenem-resistant organisms (CRO) represents a global health issue. Therefore, a rapid and accurate method for detecting these microbes in any clinical microbiology laboratory is crucial for the prevention and control of their transmission, as well as for clinical treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the phenotypic detection methods, PBA-EDTA, mCIM, PCR, and immunocolloidal gold kit for CRO.

methodsWe collected 99 samples from the inpatients in Sun Yat-Sen University Cancer Center (SYSUCC) from March 2019 to February 2022 and classified the drug resistance and genotype of various strains by various enzyme-type experiments.

resultsOut of 99 multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacilli resistant to carbapenems, 58 (58.59%) were identified as carbapenemase-positive using the mCIM test. The carbapenemase genotypes included 19 NDM strains, 4 KPC strains, 1 IMP strain, and 5 OXA-23 strains. Enzyme detection revealed 21 strains positive for metallo-β-lactamase, 50 for serine-β-lactamase, and 2 positive for both, with a total positive rate of 73.74%. 26 strains were negative for enzyme detection, and mCIM showed limited effectiveness in detecting strains coproducing NDM and KPC. The immunocolloidal gold assay had a sensitivity of 96.9% and specificity of 98.5%.

conclusionThis study used an immunocolloidal gold kit for carbapenemase detection, providing results within 15 min. This cost-effective method can quickly assist in identifying carbapenemase genotypes and holds potential as a new rapid detection and diagnostic tool for CRE in clinical and lab settings.
