Microbial communities, antibiotic resistance genes, and virulence factors in urinary infectious stone-associated urinary tract infections.
Article in Urolithiasis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Urinary infectious stones are challenging due to bacterial involvement, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of these conditions. Antibiotic-resistant urease-producing bacteria further complicate clinical management. In this study, analysis of urine and stone samples from urinary tract infection (UTI) patients revealed microbial shifts, gene enrichment in stones, and metabolic pathway disparities; antibiotic resistance gene trends were phylum-specific, urease-producing bacteria are at risk of acquiring AMR carried by Enterobacteriaceae under antibiotic, emphasizing potential AMR dissemination between them; Correlations of key pathogenic species in kidney stone and urine microbial communities highlight the need for targeted therapeutic strategies to manage complexities in UTIs; Stones and urine contain a variety of deleterious genes even before antibiotic use, and piperacillin/tazobactam better reduced the abundance of antibiotic resistance genes in stones and urine. The presence of diverse antibiotic resistance and virulence genes underscores challenges in clinical management and emphasizes the need for effective treatment strategies to mitigate risks associated with UTIs and urinary infectious stone formation. Ongoing research is vital for advancing knowledge and developing innovative approaches to address these urological conditions.
