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: Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria (CRGNB), including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) poses significant risks to immunocompromised and critically ill patients. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary care university hospital in Bangkok, Thailand (May 2023-October 2024). Hospitalized patients under 20 years of age who were immunocompromised or critically ill were enrolled. Rectal swabs were collected within 48 hours of admission. Results: Among 302 participants, 29 (9.6%) were colonized with CRGNB, including 19 (65.5%) with CRE and 10 (34.5%) with CRAB. Independent risk factors included recent surgery (adjusted OR 7.6, Conclusion: CRGNB colonization was identified in nearly 10% of high-risk pediatric patients and associated with unfavorable outcomes. Early identification and targeted infection control are essential.
