Population structure of community-acquired extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing Escherichia coli and methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a French region showed no difference between urban and rural areas.

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
Antimicrobial resistance is a global health issue and extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli (ESBL-Ec) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) are of particular concern. Whole genome sequencing analysis of isolates from the community is essential to understand the circulation of those multidrug-resistant bacteria. Our main objective was to determine the population structure of clinical ESBL-Ec and MRSA isolated in the community setting of a French region. For this purpose, isolates were collected from 23 sites belonging to 6 private medical biology laboratories in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. One hundred ninety ESBL-Ec and 67 MRSA were sequenced using the Illumina technology. Genomic analyses were performed to determine the bacterial typing, presence of antibiotic resistance genes, metal resistance genes as well as virulence genes. Analysis showed that ST131 was the major ESBL-Ec clone circulating in the region, representing 42.1% of the ESBL-Ec isolates. The blaCTX-M genes represented 98% of blaESBL with the majority being blaCTX-M-15 (53.9%). MRSA population consisted of mainly of CC8 (50.7%) and CC5 (38.8%) clonal complexes. Interestingly, we found a prevalence of 40% of the zinc resistance gene czrC in our MRSA population. We observed no differences in our ESBL-Ec or MRSA populations between urban and rural areas in our French region, suggesting no impact of population density or rural environment.
