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

Escherichia coli significantly causes nosocomial infections and rampant spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). There is limited data on genomic characterization of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing E. coli from African clinical settings. This hospital-based longitudinal study unraveled the genetic resistance elements in ESBL E. coli isolates from Uganda and Tanzania using whole-genome sequencing (WGS). A total of 142 ESBL multi-drug resistant E. coli bacterial isolates from both Tanzania and Uganda were sequenced and out of these, 36/57 (63.1%) and 67/85 (78.8%) originated from Uganda and Tanzania respectively. Mutations in RarD, yaaA and ybgl conferring resistances to chloramphenicol, peroxidase and quinolones were observed from Ugandan and Tanzanian isolates. We reported very high frequencies for bla
