Antimicrobial susceptibility profile of selected Enterobacteriaceae in wastewater samples from health facilities, abattoir, downstream rivers and a WWTP in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

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
Background: Evaluation of antimicrobial susceptibility profile of various bacterial pathogens in the health facilities, abattoirs and related environment is important to assess potential risk of dissemination of resistant pathogens to the environment. There is limited information about antimicrobial susceptibility profile of common Enterobacteriaceae in waste water samples from hospitals, abattoirs and the downstream water bodies in Addis Ababa. The present study assessed antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria belonging to the family Enterobacteriaceae isolated from wastewater samples (WWS) of two hospitals: Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital (TASH) and Minilik II hospital, a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and an abattoir, and downstream rivers in Addis Ababa. Results: A total of 54 bacterial isolates belonging to 6 species were identified: Conclusion: The present study revealed that Enterobacteriaceae in wastewater from hospitals, abattoir and downstream water bodies are resistant to commonly used antimicrobials. Hospital effluents contained more of MDR bacteria, posing significant public health threat through dissemination to the downstream water bodies.
