Scatter plots of Pseudomonas (right) and Acinetobacter (left) VAP (top) and bacteremia (bottom) incidence proportions for the component groups from all studies versus benchmarks derived from observational (Ob) groups. The control and intervention groups are stratified by studies of either non-decontamination (Non-D) methods, anti-septic-based methods (A_s), or antibiotic (Ab, TAP)-based methods. The summary mean and summary 95% confidence intervals are displayed for each category. The derivation of these confidence intervals by random effects methods is displayed in caterpillar plots (Fig S15-S22) in the ESM for the bacteremia data. Note that the x axis is a logit scale. Control and intervention groups exposed to PPAP within TAP studies are indicated as solid symbols versus not exposed (open symbols)
