The source, fate and prospect of antibiotic resistance genes in soil: A review.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 34 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), environmental pollutants of emerging concern, have posed a potential threat to the public health. Soil is one of the huge reservoirs and propagation hotspot of ARGs. To alleviate the potential risk of ARGs, it is necessary to figure out the source and fate of ARGs in the soil. This paper mainly reviewed recent studies on the association of ARGs with the microbiome and the transmission mechanism of ARGs in soil. The compositions and abundance of ARGs can be changed by modulating microbiome, soil physicochemical properties, such as pH and moisture. The relationships of ARGs with antibiotics, heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and pesticides were discussed in this review. Among the various factors mentioned above, microbial community structure, mobile genetic elements, pH and heavy metals have a relatively more important impact on ARGs profiles. Moreover, human health could be impacted by soil ARGs through plants and animals. Understanding the dynamic changes of ARGs with influencing factors promotes us to develop strategies for mitigating the occurrence and dissemination of ARGs to reduce health risks.
