A wide spectrum of fastidious and ampicillin-susceptible bacteria dominate in animal-caused wounds.

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 main purpose of this study was to assess the actual occurrence of Gram-negative oxidase-positive bacteria (GNOP) in human wounds caused by animals, mostly cat and dog bites and scratches, and with signs of infection. We report a prospective series of 92 wound samples. Routine culturing was combined with a procedure optimised for fastidious GNOP. All GNOP isolates were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing to the species level. We observed a more prominent role of GNOP, including at least 30 species mostly in the families Flavobacteriaceae, Neisseriaceae and Pasteurellaceae, and less of Staphylococcus aureus and streptococci. The antibiotic susceptibility pattern was investigated, as GNOP are associated with sudden onset of serious infections, making an early decision on antibiotic treatment vital. All GNOP isolates judged to be clinically relevant displayed susceptibility to ampicillin and meropenem, but resistance to oxacillin, clindamycin and gentamicin was frequent. Our findings emphasise the need to cover GNOP as recommended in guidelines, and not only common wound pathogens, when treating an animal-caused wound.
