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

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) bloodstream infections (BSIs) are severe, life-threatening events. PA success involves a complex interplay between virulence, antimicrobial resistance and epidemicity. This study examines the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on PA-BSI characteristics. Seventy-eight bacteraemic PA isolates were collected in two periods: pre-COVID 2015-2018 (48 PA) and post-COVID 2022-2023 (30 PA). An increase in non-susceptibility rates was found in post-COVID period, noteworthy for gentamicin, netilmicin and multidrug-resistance, although extensively drug resistant/difficult-to-treat (XDR/DTR) isolates were only detected in pre-COVID period. All isolates were cefiderocol-susceptible, but resistance to novel cephalosporin-inhibitor combinations and colistin was identified in pre-COVID period. Carbapenem-non-susceptible PA persisted around 20%, associated with OprD alterations and one pre-COVID-isolate harboured bla
