Identification and antibiotic susceptibility of microorganisms isolated from diabetic foot ulcers: A pathological aspect.

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
Diabetic foot ulcers infected with microorganisms increase the risk of amputation. The presence of drug-resistant bacteria in diabetic foot ulcers creates a big challenge during the treatment. The objective of the present study was to determine the bacterial prevalence and antibiotic resistance among bacteria isolated from Chinese patients with diabetic foot ulcers. The present study studied the microbial colonization of diabetic foot ulcers of patients from a single center in China. Wound swabs from 89 patients with diabetic foot ulcers were collected and the presence of microorganisms detected. The isolated microorganisms were subjected to antibiotic susceptibility testing by the disk diffusion method. Of 89 patients, 56 (62.9%) were male and 33 (37.1%) were female, the mean age of patients was 53.2±5.4 years, the mean duration of diabetes was 14.8±2.9 years, the mean random blood sugar was 301±87 mg/dl, mean HbA1c was 7.9±1.4%. Patients with Wanger ulcer grade III (36.0%; P=0.034) and patients within the weight range of 51-75 kg (59.6%; P=0.012) were significantly higher. The prevalence rate of diabetic foot ulcers was 11.3%. Among 153 microorganisms, gram-positive bacteria (52.3%) were more prevalent than gram-negative bacteria (44.4%). Most of the patients with polymicrobial infection were classified to have Wanger III ulcer grade diabetic foot ulcers.
