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

Respiratory diseases and its treatments are highly concerned in both the pig industry and human health. However, the composition and distribution of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in swine lower respiratory tract microbiome remain unknown. The relationships of ARGs with mobile genetic elements (MGEs) and lung health are unclear. Here, we characterize antibiotic resistomes of the swine lower respiratory tract microbiome containing 1228 open reading frames belonging to 372 ARGs using 745 metagenomes from 675 experimental pigs. Twelve ARGs conferring resistance to tetracycline are related to an MGE Tn916 family, and multiple types of ARGs are related to a transposase gene tnpA. Most of the linkage complexes between ARGs and MGEs (the Tn916 family and tnpA) are also observed in pig gut microbiomes and human lung microbiomes, suggesting the high risk of these MGEs mediating ARG transfer to both human and pig health. Gammaproteobacteria are the major ARG carriers, within which Escherichia coli harbored >50 ARGs and >10 MGEs. Although the microbial compositions structure the compositions of ARGs, we identify 73 ARGs whose relative abundances are significantly associated with the severity of lung lesions. Our results provide the first overview of ARG profiles in the swine lower respiratory tract microbiome.
