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

A group of 1,623 ovine fecal samples recovered from 65 geographically distinct mutton sheep and prime lamb properties across New South Wales, Australia, were screened for the presence of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) virulence factors (stx(1), stx(2), eaeA, and ehxA). A subset was cultured for STEC isolates containing associated virulence factors (eaeA and/or ehxA), which were isolated from 17 of 20 (85%) and 19 of 20 (95%) tested prime lamb and mutton sheep properties, respectively. STEC isolates containing stx(1), stx(2), and ehxA were most commonly isolated (19 of 40 flocks; 47.5%), and this profile was observed for 10 different serotypes. Among 90 STEC isolates studied, the most common serotypes were O91:H(-) (22 isolates [24.4%]), O5:H(-) (16 isolates [17.8%]), O128:H2 (11 isolates [12.2%]), O123:H(-) (8 isolates [8.9%]), and O85:H49 (5 isolates [5.6%]). Two isolates (2.2%) were typed as O157:H(-). A total of 78 of 90 STEC isolates (86.7%) expressed Shiga toxin in Vero cell culture and 75 of 84 ehxA-positive isolates (89.3%) expressed enterohemolysin on washed sheep blood agar. eaeA was observed in 11 of 90 (12.2%) ovine STEC isolates, including serotypes O5:H(-), O84:H(-), O85:H49, O123:H(-) O136:H40, and O157:H(-). Although only 2 of 90 isolates were typed as O157:H(-), the predominant serotypes recovered during this study have been recovered from human patients with clinical disease, albeit rarely.
