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

As an emerging food-borne pathogen, Cronobacter species are ubiquitous in the food and environment. In order to know the characteristics of Cronobacter spp. from the environment, we isolated Cronobacter spp. from soil and water, and then studied the molecular typing and antibiotic resistance characteristics of these isolates. In 2016, 141 soil and water samples were collected from farms and Riverside Park in Beijing. Isolates were identified by real-time PCR, 16s rRNA sequencing, and whole-genome sequencing. Molecular subtyping of these isolates was characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), and antibiotic susceptibility tests. Cronobacter species were classified based on fusA sequencing. Twenty-two samples (15.60%) contained Cronobacter spp., and four species were detected, i.e., C. dubliniensis (n = 10), C. sakazakii (n = 6), C. turicensis (n = 4), and C. malonaticus (n = 2). For MLST, 12 types (ST519-ST525, ST533-ST537) were newly identified, indicating high diversity. Most isolates (68.18%) showed resistance to cefazolin. Siccibacter turicensis and Cronobacter both with blue-green colonies on selective media should be respectively identified. Apparently, major Cronobacter species in soil and water samples differed from those in food. Molecular subtyping showed that the environment could not be excluded as a source of Cronobacter infection. The resistance to cefazolin of most isolates indicated natural resistance.
