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

Objective: To analyze the relationship between the distribution of virulence genes and resistance genes and clinical features of lower respiratory tract infections with Methods: Lower respiratory tract specimens from patients with lung infections in the intensive care unit of the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University were collected in December 2023, and the study population contained 32 strains of patients with AB infections and 22 strains of patients with KP infections. Target next generation sequencing (tNGS) was used to detect the pathogenic organisms, virulence genes, and drug-resistance genes, and to analyze the changes in the clinical detection indexes of different subgroups of patients. Results: The highest detection rate of Conclusion: The mechanism of virulence of AB and KP is mainly related to affecting bacterial biofilm formation and iron uptake; patients with AB and KP infections in which virulence genes were detected were more likely to be resistant to penicillins, cephalosporins, and carbapenems, among others; patients with pneumoniae infections of KP appeared to be more severe than patients with pneumoniae infections of AB.
