High heterogeneity of fecal carriage extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing E. coli isolated from iranian community and clinical settings.

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
backgroundExtended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing enterobacteria (ESBL-PE) in carriers have become a global health problem. Using molecular typing techniques, including PFGE, could be useful to determine the source of bacterial dissemination. The current study aimed to investigate the intestinal carriage of ESBL-producing E. coli (ESBL-EC) and clonal relatedness among ESBL-EC isolated from hospitalized and outpatient fecal carriers in Iran.
methodsA total of 120 rectal swabs were collected; 50.8% (61/120) from intensive care unit (ICU) inpatients and 49.2% (59/120) from outpatients. MacConkey agar enriched with cefotaxime was used to screen the ESBL-EC. PCR assays were performed to detect ESBL and carbapenemase genes. Pulse-fields gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was performed to assess clonal relatedness.
resultsTotally, 60.0% (72/120) were carrier for ESBL-EC. The rates of resistance against ceftazidime and cefepime were 90.2% (65/72) and 93.0% (67/72), respectively. The rates of bla DISCUSSION: High heterogeneity among isolates from ESBL-EC suggests that this bacterium probably has a different source of dissemination. Screening of carriers in hospitals and communities could help the infection control program in public health.
