Genomic Sequence Analysis of Methicillin- and Carbapenem-Resistant Bacteria Isolated from Raw Sewage.

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 is one of the largest threats facing global health. Wastewater treatment plants are well-known hot spots for interaction between diverse bacteria, genetic exchange, and antibiotic resistance. Nonpathogenic bacteria theoretically act as reservoirs of antibiotic resistance subsequently transferring antibiotic resistance genes to pathogens, indicating that evolutionary processes occur outside clinical settings and may drive patterns of drug-resistant infections. We isolated and sequenced 100 bacterial strains from five wastewater treatment plants to analyze regional dynamics of antibiotic resistance in the California Central Valley. The results demonstrate the presence of a wide diversity of pathogenic and nonpathogenic bacteria, with an arithmetic mean of 5.1 resistance genes per isolate. Forty-three percent of resistance genes were located on plasmids, suggesting that large levels of gene transfer between bacteria that otherwise may not co-occur are facilitated by wastewater treatment. One of the strains detected was a
