Evaluation of Virulence, Antimicrobial Resistance and Biofilm Forming Potential of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Isolates from Bovine Suspected with Mastitis.
Article in Current microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a pathogen that poses a significant threat in cases of chronic mastitis in dairy animals. The ability of MRSA to persist in the host is attributed to various virulence factors, genes encoding surface adhesins, and determinants of antibiotic resistance, which provide it a survival advantage. This investigation focused to determine the virulence factors, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profile and biofilm production potential of 46 MRSA isolates from 300 bovine mastitis milk samples. The AMR profile revealed a high level of resistance, with 46 and 42 isolates resistant to cefoxitin and oxacillin, respectively, followed by 24 and 12 isolates resistant to lomefloxacin and erythromycin, respectively. Only 2 isolates resistant to tetracycline and none were resistant to chloramphenicol. The study also evaluated various virulence factors such as coa (n = 46), nuc (n = 35) hlg (n = 36), pvl (n = 14), tsst-1(n = 28) spa (n = 39) and enterotoxin genes sea (n = 12) and seg (n = 28) and identified antibiotic resistance determinants mecA and blaZ in 46 and 27 isolates, respectively. Intercellular adhesion genes icaA and icaD were present in 40 and 43 isolates, respectively and surface adhesion genes ebps, fnbpA, eno, sasG, cna, and bap were found in 43, 40, 38, 26, 21 and 1 isolates, respectively. Microtiter plate (MTP) assay revealed that 29 MRSA isolates were capable of producing biofilms, whereas 17 were not. Biofilms producing MRSA isolates possessed adhesion genes, virulence factors, toxin genes and AMR genes that may act synergistically towards a chronic disease progression, illness and severe damage to the udder, which generally last for several months and very challenging to cure.
