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

Background: The increasing prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Methods: The PK and PD properties of Results: After administration, vB_AbaSt_W16 rapidly disseminated systemically within 1 h, reaching peak concentrations at 8 h. Most tissues cleared the phage within 72 h, though residual amounts persisted in the spleen for up to 92 h. In a murine infection model, vB_AbaSt_W16 demonstrated potent antibacterial activity, reducing CRAB bacterial loads by 4-7 log₁₀ cfu/mL within 24 h. Compared with PO administration, IP administration resulted in higher systemic bioavailability and bacterial clearance. Fluorescence imaging enabled non-invasive, real-time monitoring of phage distribution, demonstrating its utility as a PK assessment tool. Notably, phage treatment did not trigger significant pro-inflammatory cytokine release (TNF-α, IL-6) in healthy mice and effectively reduced CRAB-induced inflammation. Conclusions: These findings highlight the therapeutic potential of vB_AbaSt_W16 and provide critical insights into its PK behaviour. The results support further clinical development of this phage for CRAB infections.
