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

backgroundIn this study, we investigated the correlation between the mutation rates for ampC derepression and species or ampC genotypes in Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) susceptible to ceftriaxone. Non-duplicate ceftriaxone-sensitive ECC isolates (90) were obtained from September 2021 to January 2023 at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai. hsp60 genotyping and PCR were used for species and ampC identification, respectively. Thirteen strains with the negative ampC amplification results were sequenced, and the mutation rates for ampC derepression were determined by performing Luria-Delbrück fluctuation analyses.

resultsAmong these isolates, E. hormaechei was the most prevalent (54.44%), followed by E. roggenkampii (12.22%), E. cloacae (11.11%), E. bugandensis (10.00%), E. asburiae (4.44%), and E. kobei (4.44%). For E. ludwigii, E. mori, and E. sichuanensis, only a single strain was identified. There were 72 strains with bla

conclusionsECC was found to have high mutation rate-inducible AmpC production with no species or ampC genotype differences. This highlights an important clinical concern, i.e., the high risk of treatment failure with third-generation cephalosporins in individuals with inducible AmpC-containing ECC.
