Ceftazidime-avibactam activity against
Article in Iranian journal of microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background and Objectives: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infections are extremely difficult to treat and have a high fatality rate. The study's primary goal was to determine the rate of ceftazidime-avibactam susceptibility using disc diffusion and E-Test, as well as to evaluate the agreement between the two methods. Materials and Methods: A total of 124 multidrug-resistant (including carbapenem) Results: In this study 37.5% and 33.9% of the isolates were susceptible to ceftazidime-avibactam by E test and Disc diffusion respectively. There were five isolates which produced discordant results. Among the 56 isolates there was 91% agreement between the two methods. Conclusion: Among the discordant isolates the alarming disparity in zone size was a significant concern. Since CRE infections are very common, an economical and practical method for testing ceftazidime-avibactam susceptibility is needed in all the clinical microbiology laboratories as it is a last resort drug.
