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: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the carriage and expression of virulence genes associated with the type III secretion system (T3SS) in carbapenem-resistant Methods: CRPA strains isolated from the First Hospital Affiliated to Hebei North College between April 2022 and February 2023 were analyzed. Antimicrobial susceptibility was tested using the microbroth dilution method. Second-generation high-throughput sequencing was employed to detect four virulence genes (exoU, exoY, exoS, and exoT) and β-lactamase genes in CRPA strains with T3SS. Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) was performed to determine the sequence types (ST) of the strains. The Results: Resistance to imipenem was observed in 100% of the strains, whereas resistance to polymyxin B was the lowest at 6.7%. The highest detection rate of T3SS virulence genes was for exoT (100%), followed by exoS, exoY (88.9%), and exoU (11.1%). Twenty-two ST types were identified, with ST 244 being the most prevalent (31.1%). In the Conclusion: T3SS virulence genes and virulence levels in CRPA strains were correlated with antibiotic resistance. CRPA strains producing blaOXA-101 and blaPER-1 spread throughout the region.
