Salmonella serovars in sheep and goats and their probable zoonotic potential to humans in Suez Canal Area, Egypt.
Article in Acta veterinaria Scandinavica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 13 papers.
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
backgroundSalmonella is one of the most common and economically important zoonotic pathogens. This study aimed to determine the occurrence of Salmonella serovars in sheep and goats and their probable zoonotic risk to humans in Suez Canal area in Egypt. A total of 320 fecal samples from sheep (n = 120), goats (n = 100), and humans (n = 100) were collected and examined for the presence of Salmonella based on cultural and biochemical characteristics, and serological analysis. Moreover, the virulence of the identified Salmonella isolates was assessed by molecular screening for invA, stn, spvC, and sopB virulence genes using PCR.
resultsOverall, the occurrence of Salmonella in sheep feces (23.3%) was higher than that in goat feces (7%) and human stool (13%) in the study area. The identified isolates belonged to 12 serotypes; ten, five, and eight from sheep, goats, and humans, respectively. The most frequently identified serotypes were S. Typhimurium from sheep feces, and S. Enteritidis from both goat feces and human stool, with four serotypes; S. Typhimurium, S. Enteritidis, S. Dublin and S. Saintpaul, were mutually shared between all of them. Demographic data revealed that diarrheic sheep (85.7%) and goats (25%) had a higher risk for Salmonella fecal carriage than non-diarrheic ones (19.5% and 6.25%, respectively). The prevalence of Salmonella infection in humans in contact with sheep and goats (28%) was significantly higher than its prevalence in people having a history of contact with animals other than sheep and goats (10%) and those having no history of animal contact (7.3%) (χ
conclusionsThe present study highlights the role of apparently healthy and diarrheic sheep and goats as reservoirs and sources of human infection with virulent Salmonella serovars in the Suez Canal area.
