Prevalence of Enterobacteriaceae spp. and its multidrug-resistant rates in clinical isolates: A two-center cross-sectional study.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Enterobacteriaceae spp., owing to their high durability and antibiotic-resistant mechanisms, are described as an eminent part of health treatments in hospital-acquired infections. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of clinical isolated Enterobacteriaceae spp., and their multidrug-resistant rate in the north of Iran. In this cross-sectional study, over two years (2017-2019), clinical isolates were collected and Enterobacteriaceae spp. were identified using the standard media culture and Analytical Profile Index (API 20E) kit from two centers in the north of Iran. Isolates were confirmed by targeting the rpoB gene. Moreover, the susceptibility patterns of isolates were assessed using disc diffusion methods according to the Clinical Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI) guidelines. Out of 2645 clinical specimens, 297 (11.2%) were confirmed as Enterobacteriaceae spp. containing Eshershia. coli 93 (31%), Citrobacter freundii 65 (21.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae 48 (16.2%), Enterobacter spp. 43 (14.5%), and Proteus spp. 23 (7.7%). As much as 8.7% of other spp. Ampicillin (81.1%) and cephalexin (80.9%) have been shown to have the greatest resistant, and nalidixic acid (65%) and amikacin (59.2%) were the most sensitive drugs. Multidrug-resistance (MDR) strains are more isolated in the Burn and Burn intensive care unit (BICU) than other wards. The MDR frequency in Bouali and Zareh hospitals were 65 (49.61%) and 130 (78.31%), respectively. Considering the high isolation rates of MDR Enterobacteriaceae spp., preventive measures need to be taken to remove the mentioned bacteria from hospital wards.
