Detection and Quantification of Conjugative Transfer of Mobile Genetic Elements Carrying Antibiotic Resistance Genes.

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
Multidrug resistance, due to acquired antimicrobial resistance genes, is increasingly reported in the zoonotic pathogen Streptococcus suis. Most of these resistance genes are carried by chromosomal Mobile Genetic Elements (MGEs), in particular, Integrative and Conjugative Elements (ICEs) and Integrative and Mobilizable Elements (IMEs). ICEs and IMEs frequently form tandems or nested composite elements, which make their identification difficult. To evaluate their mobility, it is necessary to (i) select the suitable donor-recipient pairs for mating assays, (ii) do PCR excision tests to confirm that the genetic element is able to excise from the chromosome as a circular intermediate, and (iii) evaluate the transfer of the genetic element by conjugation by doing mating assays. In addition to a dissemination of resistance genes between S. suis strains, MGEs can lead to a spreading of resistance genes in the environment and toward pathogenic bacteria. This propagation had to be considered in a One Health perspective.
