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

The plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance cluster tmexCD-toprJ is an emerging clinical threat whose convergence with carbapenemase and colistin resistance determinants may compromise multiple last-line therapies. We analyzed 1227 tmexCD-toprJ-positive genomes from 42 countries and 16 genera, including 1189 public genomes and 38 newly sequenced clinical isolates. The increase was most pronounced in China, where tmexCD-toprJ prevalence rose from 0.282% before 2011 to 1.504% after 2020, and approximately half of post-2015 Chinese isolates were classified as dual-positive, co-harboring bla
