Prevalence of Enterotoxin Genes and Antibacterial Susceptibility Pattern of Staphylococcus aureus Strains Isolated from Animal Originated Foods in West of Iran.
Article in Oman medical journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 30 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesThe aims of our study were to evaluate the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) strains in food samples of animal origin, examine their antibacterial susceptibility pattern, and to detect staphylococcal enterotoxin (SEs) genes and the mecA gene in isolated S. aureus strains using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). .
methodsA total of 1050 food samples including 671 raw milk and dairy products and 379 raw meats were collected between September 2013 and June 2014 in Hamadan, Iran. Food samples were analyzed for S. aureus identification. The antibiotic susceptibility pattern of all isolates was determined using the disk agar diffusion method followed by detecting mecA resistance gene using PCR. In addition, harboring of SE genes were determined using a multiplex PCR assay targeting nine genes. .
resultsA total of 98 (9.3%) S. aureus strains were isolated from 1050 food samples. Of the 98 isolates examined, the most frequent resistance was observed to erythromycin (30.6%), followed by tetracycline (29.6%), gentamicin (27.6%), clindamycin (26.5%), ciprofloxacin and rifampin (24.5%), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (14.3%), and cefoxitin (5.1%). All cefoxitin resistant isolates were positive for mecA. The prevalence of SEs was 77.6% (n=76). Among the genes that code classic enterotoxins, sea was the most frequent and was carried by 25.5% of isolates, followed by see in 18.4%, sed in 11.2%, sec in 5.1%, and seb in 4.1% of isolates. Among the detected enterotoxins, seg was the predominantly identified enterotoxin gene in isolates with prevalence of 35.7%. The seh gene with prevalence of 1% and sei gene with 3.1% were other detected enterotoxins with low frequencies. .
conclusionThe high prevalence of SE genes detected indicates a potential risk for causing animal-originated food poisoning. The increasing prevalence of community-acquired MRSA and its emerging antibiotic resistance in foods is a serious problem for public health.
