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
Background: We describe an outbreak of carbapenem-resistant Methods: Between June and July 2023, a comprehensive epidemiological investigation was conducted, including environmental hygiene surveillance and targeted infection control interventions. These measures focused on patients with CRKP nosocomial infections in the ICU, and their effectiveness was systematically evaluated. Results: A total of 22 CRKP strains were identified in 14 patients(including one transferred from another hospital), with 13 nosocomial infections. Five patients had infections at multiple sites. The nosocomial infection rate was 8.1%, representing a statistically significant increase compared to the same period in previous years. Environmental surveillance detected CRKP contamination on the hands of two doctors (8.7% detection rate) and on various surfaces (8% detection rate), particularly shared equipment, bed unit surfaces, and sanitary ware. Following the implementation of control measures, the spread was effectively contained. Conclusions: Key factors contributing to transmission likely included delayed identification of infected patients, inadequate enforcement of isolation protocols, and suboptimal environmental cleaning and disinfection. Early detection, strict isolation measures, and thorough environmental cleaning are essential for effective prevention and control of CRKP in the ICU setting.
