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

backgroundDisinfectants are important in the food industry to prevent the transmission of pathogens. Excessive use of disinfectants may increase the probability of bacteria experiencing long-term exposure and consequently resistance and cross-resistance to antibiotics. This study aims to investigate the cross-resistance of multidrug-resistant, drug-resistant, and drug-susceptible isolates of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) with different sequence types (STs) to a group of antibiotics after exposure to different food-grade disinfectants.

methodsA panel of 27 S. Typhimurium strains with different antibiograms and STs were exposed to increasing concentrations of five food-grade disinfectants, including hydrogen peroxide (H

resultsFollowing exposure to disinfectants, 22 out of 135 evolved strains increased their resistance to antibiotics from a group of 14 clinically important antibiotics. The results also showed that 9 out of 135 evolved strains had decreased resistance to some antibiotics. Genetic mutations were found in evolved strains. A total of 77.78% of ST34, 58.33% of ST19, and 66.67% of the other STs strains exhibited changes in antibiotic resistance. BAC was the disinfectant that induced the highest number of strains to cross-resistance to antibiotics. Besides, H

conclusionsThese findings provide a basis for understanding the effect of disinfectants on the antibiotic resistance of S. Typhimurium. This work highlights the link between long-term exposure to disinfectants and the evolution of resistance to antibiotics and provides evidence to promote the regulated use of disinfectants.
