Cefiderocol: A Comprehensive Review of Chemistry, Mechanisms of Resistance, and Clinical Applications in the Era of Multidrug Resistance.
Review in Current microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
The global spread of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria, particularly carbapenem- and colistin-resistant strains, represents a critical public health crisis with limited therapeutic options. Cefiderocol, a first-in-class siderophore cephalosporin, addresses this challenge through an innovative Trojan horse mechanism. Its unique catechol-containing C-3 side chain enables iron chelation and active transport into bacterial periplasmic space, bypassing traditional resistance pathways. This design confers stability against all Ambler class β-lactamases (A-D), including carbapenemases (bla
