1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

This study was conducted in north-eastern Tunisia to estimate the contamination prevalence of Salmonella in broilers' meat, to rank serotypes and to characterize the isolated multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains. A total number of 1288 meat samples were collected from 322 broiler batches; Salmonella isolates were identified by the alternative technique VIDAS Easy Salmonella. The susceptibility of Salmonella isolates was assessed against 21 antimicrobials using the disc diffusion method on Mueller-Hinton agar. Some antimicrobial resistance genes were identified using Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). The prevalence rates of Salmonella in the neck skin and the breast muscle contamination were estimated at 11.8% (38/322) and 0.9% (3/322), respectively. The prevalence rate of Salmonella in meat cutting parts contamination was estimated at 5.1% (33/644). Eight serotypes of Salmonella were identified, namely S. Enteritidis, S. Kentucky, S. Anatum, S. Infantis, S. Mbandaka, S. Zanzibar, S. Hadar and S. Agona. High rate of resistance was identified against amoxicillin (91.9%), nalidixic acid (83.8%), tetracycline (75.7%), streptomycin (73%), ciprofloxacin (70%), sulfamides (68.9%), cefalotin (68.9%), cefotaxim (67.6%) and cefoxitin (60.8%). The majority (90.5%; 67/74) of isolated strains was recognized as MDR. Nine MDR strains were identified as Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL) producers. The bla
