Resistance of Gram-Negative Bacteria to Cefepime-Enmetazobactam: A Systematic Review.

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.
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
Cefepime-enmetazobactam is a novel β-lactam/β-lactamase inhibitor combination showing good activity against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria producing a variety of β-lactamases. In this systematic review, we aimed to evaluate the available data on resistance to this drug. We performed a thorough search of four databases (Embase, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science), as well as backward citation searching, to identify studies containing data on resistance to cefepime-enmetazobactam. The data were extracted and analyzed according to the breakpoints established by the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or the specific breakpoints reported by the authors of the respective studies. Analysis based on the type of lactamases produced by the isolates was also performed. Ten studies reported in vitro susceptibility testing and mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance. The total number of isolates was 15,408. The activity of cefepime-enmetazobactam against β-lactamase-producing isolates was variable. The resistance of the studied extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing and ampicillin C β-lactamase (AmpC)-producing isolates was low (0-2.8% and 0%, respectively). The resistance was higher among oxacillinase-48 β-lactamase (OXA-48)-producing and
