Occurrence and distribution of antibiotic resistance genes in various rural environmental media.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2020. 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
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in rural environments have been poorly characterized in the literature. In this study, the diversity, abundance, and distribution of ARGs in surface waters, soils, and sediments of a typical hilly rural area in the Upper Yangtze River watershed were investigated using the high-throughput quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and their relationships with chemical properties of the samples were analyzed. No significant differences in the diversity and abundance of ARGs were observed among the three medium types while the ARG distribution pattern in the sediments was obviously different from that of the surface waters. According to the co-occurrence pattern of ARGs subtypes obtained by network analysis, blaOXA10-02, blaPSE, lnuB-02, and qacEΔ1-01 can be used to estimate the relative abundance of total ARGs for the study area. It appeared that the prevalence of ARGs in the sediments was promoted by the horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and vertical gene transfer together, while their spread in the surface waters and soils were facilitated by the supply of biogenic elements and HGT, respectively. Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) were abundant and detected in all samples, and their abundance was significantly and positively correlated with that of ARGs, implying that the potential horizontal transfer of ARGs to other bacteria and pathogens in rural environments should not be overlooked.
