Studying the Association between Antibiotic Resistance Genes and Insertion Sequences in Metagenomes: Challenges and Pitfalls.
Article in Antibiotics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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 is an issue in many areas of human activity. The mobilization of antibiotic resistance genes within the bacterial community makes it difficult to study and control the phenomenon. It is known that certain insertion sequences, which are mobile genetic elements, can participate in the mobilization of antibiotic resistance genes and in the expression of these genes. However, the magnitude of the contribution of insertion sequences to the mobility of antibiotic resistance genes remains understudied. In this study, the relationships between insertion sequences and antibiotic resistance genes present in the microbiome were investigated using two public datasets. The first made it possible to analyze the effects of different antibiotics in a controlled mouse model. The second dataset came from a study of the differences between conventional and organic-raised cattle. Although it was possible to find statistically significant correlations between the insertion sequences and antibiotic resistance genes in both datasets, several challenges remain to better understand the contribution of insertion sequences to the motility of antibiotic resistance genes. Obtaining more complete and less fragmented metagenomes with long-read sequencing technologies could make it possible to understand the mechanisms favoring horizontal transfers within the microbiome with greater precision.
