First isolation of ST398 methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus carrying staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec type IVd from pig ears in Japan.

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
The emergence and increasing prevalence of livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) are a global concern. To investigate the prevalence and characteristics of sequence type 398 (ST398) MRSA in pig ears, 102 pig's ears were collected from 102 animals shipped from 51 farms at an abattoir. Eight ST398 MRSA isolates were isolated from the ears of eight pigs shipped from seven farms. Of the eight ST398 isolates, seven had the staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) type IVd and these were obtained from seven pigs shipped from six farms. Single nucleotide polymorphisms ranging from 13 to 26 were observed in the core-genome regions in the seven SCCmec type IVd isolates. We believe that this is the first report on the isolation of ST398 MRSA SCCmec type IVd in Japan.
