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

Antimicrobial resistance is a significant global public health threat that limits treatment options for bacterial infections. This situation is aggravated by the environmental spread of β-lactamase genes. In particular, metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) hydrolyze almost all available β-lactam antibiotics, including late-generation cephalosporins and carbapenems. Among MBLs, the New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase (NDM-1) of subclass B1 has shown the most ominous dissemination. NDM variants are the only MBLs of clinical importance that are membrane-anchored, a sub-cellular localization that endows them with high stability under conditions of metal limitation. However, antibiotic resistance predates modern antibiotic usage, and environmental bacteria serve as reservoirs for resistance genes. Here, we report the biochemical and structural characterization of two membrane-bound MBLs: CJO-1 and CIM-2, from
