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

backgroundStaphylococcus spp. are the major causal agents of mastitis in dairy animals worldwide leading to profound economic losses and public health threats. Recently, Staphylococcus aureus has emerged as a multidrug resistant and zoonotic pathogen. This study aimed to characterize S. aureus in subclinical mastitis (SCM) milk samples of riverine buffaloes in Bangladesh through antibiogram and virulence gene(s) profiling, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

methodWe characterized S. aureus in SCM milk samples (N = 500) of riverine buffaloes through antibiogram and virulence gene(s) profiling, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

resultsOut of 500 milk samples tested, 188 (37.6%) were found positive for SCM. From 188 SCM samples, 291 isolates were obtained with a prevalence of S. aureus in 37.4% (109/291) isolates. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the evolutionary divergence of S. aureus isolates in bubaline SCM milk samples. The antibiogram profiling showed that about 96.0% S. aureus isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR). Notably, 29 and 16 isolates harboured methicillin-resistant (mecA) and panton-valentine leucocidin (pvl) genes, respectively, and 46 plasmid-bearing isolates were MDR. Nine Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs/SEls) including sea (11.9%), sec (7.4%), sed (4.6%), seg (3.7%), and seh (3.7%) were detected with 72.48% toxinotypes comprising a single gene.

conclusionThis study therefore suggests S. aureus as the single-most aetiology (∼37.0%) of SCM in riverine buffaloes, and emergence of MDR, enterotoxin producing, and virulent S. aureus strains could impose potential threats to animal welfare and public health.
