Article in Brazilian journal of microbiology : [publication of the Brazilian Society for Microbiology], 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The emergence of fluoroquinolone and macrolide resistance in C. jejuni, a recognized zoonotic pathogen, has increased worldwide. This study aimed to investigate phenotypic resistance to ciprofloxacin and erythromycin, the molecular mechanisms involved, and the strain of C. jejuni isolated from broiler carcasses. Eighty C. jejuni isolates from broiler carcasses in southern Brazil were investigated for their susceptibility to ciprofloxacin and erythromycin at minimal inhibitory concentrations. Mismatch amplification mutation assay-polymerase chain reaction (MAMA-PCR) was performed to detect substitutions of Thr-86-Ile, A2074C, and A2075G of domain V in the 23S rRNA. The presence of ermB gene and CmeABC operon were investigated by PCR. DNA sequencing was used to detect substitutions in the L4 and L22 proteins of the erythromycin-resistant strains. The Short Variable Region (SVR) of flaA was used to type all the strains resistant to both antimicrobials. Ciprofloxacin and erythromycin resistance were detected in 81.25% and 30.00% of the strains, respectively, and minimal inhibitory concentration values ranged from ≤ 0.125 to 64 µg/mL for ciprofloxacin and 0.5 to > 128 µg/mL for erythromycin. The Thr-86-Ile mutation in gyrA was observed in 100% of the ciprofloxacin-resistant strains. Mutations in both the A2074C and A2075G positions of 23S rRNA were observed in 62.5% of the erythromycin-resistant strains, while 37.5% had only the mutation A2075G. None of the strains harbored CmeABC operon, and ermB was not detected. Using DNA sequencing, the amino acid substitution T177S was detected in L4, and substitutions I65V, A103V, and S109A were detected in L22. Twelve flaA-SVR alleles were identified among the strains, with the most common SVR-flaA allele, type 287, covering 31.03% of ciprofloxacin- and erythromycin-resistant isolates. The present study revealed a high incidence and high levels of resistance to ciprofloxacin and erythromycin, as well as broad molecular diversity in C. jejuni isolates from broiler carcasses.
