CC398 Staphylococcus aureus subpopulations in Belgian patients.
Article in European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Studies based on genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) supported the existence of two subpopulations in clonal complex (CC) 398 Staphylococcus aureus: an ancestral human-adapted clade (HC) and an animal-associated clade (AC). In this study, we have investigated the occurrence of genetic markers that allow discrimination of these subpopulations among CC398 isolates collected during 2014 to 2016 from human patients in Belgium. A collection of isolates was investigated by means of spa-typing and 16S-mecA-nuc PCR. CC398 isolates were classified as belonging to the human or the animal clade by using a canonical SNPs PCR and further studied by antimicrobial susceptibility and the presence of toxins, immune evasion cluster (IEC), and resistance genes. A total of 124 (7.8%) human isolates belonged to CC398. They were grouped into HC (n = 58) or AC (n = 66). The genes erm(T), pvl, chp, and scn were predominantly found in HC-CC398, while AC-CC398 isolates carried more frequently than the mecA, erm(C), tet(K), tet(M), and tet(L) genes. Different combinations of gene profiles were observed according to the clade. CC398 isolates from Belgian patients belonged to different subpopulations including typical HC and AC-isolates. Few HC-strains with mecA and AC-isolates harboring IEC were found. CC398 isolates from Belgian patients belonged to different subpopulations including typical HC and AC-isolates, as well as new emerging subpopulations that underline the ability of this lineage to acquire resistance and virulence genes. Further research is needed to evaluate the emergence of these subpopulations in the clinical setting.
