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: Invasive liver abscess syndrome (ILAS) caused by hypervirulent Case presentation: We describe a 70-year-old diabetic male with recurrent ILAS who developed sequential multi-organ infections, including urinary tract infection, bacteremia, lung abscess, and brain abscess. Initial isolates were identified as carbapenem-susceptible; however, under prolonged antimicrobial pressure, they were transformed into CR-hvKp carrying the KPC gene. Treatment escalated from meropenem to ceftazidime-avibactam plus tigecycline, resulting in clinical improvement and discharge after 48 days. Conclusion: This case highlights the critical challenge of emerging resistance in hvKp during prolonged therapy, emphasizing the need for early molecular surveillance, multidisciplinary collaboration, and optimized antibiotic stewardship to mitigate treatment failure in ILAS.
