Exploring antibiotic resistance in environmental integron-cassettes through intI-attC amplicons deep sequencing.
Article in Brazilian journal of microbiology : [publication of the Brazilian Society for Microbiology], 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionFreshwater ecosystems provide propitious conditions for the acquisition and spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and integrons play an important role in this process. MATERIAL AND
methodsIn the present study, the diversity of putative environmental integron-cassettes, as well as their potential bacterial hosts in the Velhas River (Brazil), was explored through intI-attC and 16S rRNA amplicons deep sequencing. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: ORFs related to different biological processes were observed, from DNA integration to oxidation-reduction. ARGs-cassettes were mainly associated with class 1 mobile integrons carried by pathogenic Gammaproteobacteria, and possibly sedentary chromosomal integrons hosted by Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria. Two putative novel ARG-cassettes homologs to fosB3 and novA were detected. Regarding 16SrRNA gene analysis, taxonomic and functional profiles unveiled Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria as dominant phyla. Betaproteobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, and Actinobacteria classes were the main contributors for KEGG orthologs associated with resistance.
conclusionsOverall, these results provide new information about environmental integrons as a source of resistance determinants outside clinical settings and the bacterial community in the Velhas River.
