[The postal code as a "bar code" of antimicrobial resistance].
Observational study in Revista espanola de quimioterapia : publicacion oficial de la Sociedad Espanola de Quimioterapia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThe need to integrate local resistances into clinical practice is increasingly urgent, especially in Primary Care where empirical treatment is frequent.
methodsA retrospective observational study of positive microbiological isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from any location (urethral, cervical, pharyngeal, rectal or urine) was carried out in the health area of Alcalá de Henares. Sociodemographic characteristics and resistance to cephalosporins, azithromycin, penicillin and quinolones were analyzed. Each isolate was related to its postal code of origin.
resultsWe analyzed 256 microbiological samples of N.gonorrhoeae, most of them male (92.9%) with a mean age of 33 years. Half of the samples (49.8%) were resistant to ciprofloxacin. Temporal and spatial evolution of antimicrobial resistance was integrated in heat maps.
conclusionsKnowing local resistances can help to prescribe more adequate empirical treatments, especially in Primary Care, avoiding inadequate antibiotics and decreasing resistance rates.
