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

objectiveTo investigate the prevalence of Salmonella Typhi and Paratyphi resistance to quinolones and characterize the underlying mechanism in Jiangsu Province of China.

methodsAntimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion system. Quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR), plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinant genes were detected by PCR and sequencing.

resultsOut of 239 Salmonella isolates, 164 were S. Typhi and 75 were S. Paratyphi. 128 (53.6%) Salmonella isolates were resistant to nalidixic acid; 11 (4.6%) isolates to ciprofloxacin and 66 (27.6%) isolates were intermediate to ciprofloxacin. QRDR were present in 69 S. Typhi isolates, among which mutation at codon 83 (n = 45) and 133 (n = 61) predominated. In S. Paratyphi, the most common mutations were detected in gyrA at codon 83(n = 24) and parC: T57S (n = 8). Seven mutations were first reported in Salmonella isolates including gyrB: S426G, parC: D79G and parE: [S498T, E543K, V560G, I444S, Y434S]. PMQR genes including qnrD1, qnrA1, qnrB4, aac (6')-Ib-cr4 and qnrS1 were detected in 1, 2, 3, 7 and 9 isolates, relatively.

conclusionsHigh resistance to quinolones in Salmonella remains a serious problem in Jiangsu, China. The presence of the novel mutations increases the complexity of quinolone-resistant genotypes and poses a threat to public health. Subject terms: Salmonella Typhi, Salmonella Paratyphi, antimicrobial resistance, QRDR, PMQR.
