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

backgroundMultidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria pose a significant challenge due to their limited treatment options. The production of extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) is an important mechanism of resistance. This study aimed to identify the incidence and characteristics of ESBL-encoding genes (bla MATERIALS AND

methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted from September 2022 to May 2023. ESBL-producing isolates (n = 105) out of 412 were recovered from hospitalized and outpatient settings and analyzed. Standard microbiological methods were used for isolates identification, susceptibility testing, and phenotypic ESBL detection. Additionally, bla

resultsMolecular profiling of β-lactamase determinants was conducted via PCR targeting bla DISCUSSION: This study highlights the significant prevalence of ESBL genes and multidrug resistance among Gram-negative bacteria. The dominance of bla

conclusionThis study provides valuable insights into the alarming incidence of ESBL genes and MDR in Mansoura, Egypt. Continuous surveillance and implementation of effective control strategies are crucial to combat this growing public health threat.
