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
backgroundAlthough Escherichia coli (E. coli) is considered a normal microflora in the poultry intestine, certain strains namely, Avian Pathogenic E. coli (APEC), cause colisepticaemia (fatal disease) in poultry. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of the virulence genes, i.e. (iroN, ompT, iss, iutA, and hlyF) and aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) genes, i.e. (strA and strB) in Escherichia coli strains in broilers in Khartoum State. METHODS AND
resultsA total of 25 E. coli isolates were collected from broilers farms. All isolates were screened for antimicrobial susceptibility tests using Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. In addition, all isolates were tested for the presence of virulence genes and modifying enzyme genes using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The results showed that the prevalence of positive strains to virulence genes were 14 (56%), 21 (84%), 14 (56%), 0 (0%) and 0 (0%) to iroN, iutA, hlyF, ompT and iss, respectively. Combined virulence genes include iroN, hlyF and iutA were detected in 14 (56%). The rates of resistance were as follows: Gentamycin: (32%), Kanamycin: (20%) and Streptomycin (16%). Of the genes tested, strA (72%) was the most commonly recognized gene followed by strB (56%).
conclusionsIt could be concluded that this is the first report of molecular survey of virulence and aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme (AME) resistant genes in APEC isolates from broiler in Sudan. Therefore, prohibition of non-curative application of antibiotic, dishearten their abuse and to be frequently observant by suppling suitable research-based policy for the poultry industry is warranted.
