1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Increasing reports on K. pneumoniae strains with antimicrobial resistance and virulence traits from food and farm animals are raising concerns about the potential role of Klebsiella spp. as a foodborne pathogen. This study aimed to report and characterize Klebsiella spp. isolates from two artisanal ready-to-eat food (soft cheese and salami) producing facilities, and to track similar genotypes in different ecological niches. Over 1170 samples were collected during the whole production chain of different food batches. The overall Klebsiella prevalence was 6%. Strains were classified into the three Klebsiella species complexes: K. pneumoniae (KpSC, n = 17), K. oxytoca (KoSC, n = 38) and K. planticola (KplaSC, n = 18). Despite high genetic diversity we found in terms of known and new sequence types (STs), core genome phylogeny revealed clonal strains persisting in the same processing setting for over 14 months, isolated from the environment, raw materials and end-products. Strains showed a natural antimicrobial resistance phenotype-genotype. K. pneumoniae strains showed the highest virulence potential, with sequence types ST4242 and ST107 strains carrying yersiniabactin ybt16 and aerobactin iuc3. The latter was detected in all K. pneumoniae from salami and was located on a large conjugative plasmid highly similar (97% identity) to iuc3
