Inducible clindamycin-resistant and biofilm formation in the Staphylococcus aureus isolated from healthcare worker's anterior nasal carriage.
Article in BMC research notes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study is a new update on the resistance profile, Macrolide-Lincosamide-Streptogramin B resistance mechanisms and biofilm formation in the Staphylococcus aureus isolated from health care workers (HCWs) nasal carriage at a children's teaching hospital in Babol (Northern Iran).
resultsA total of 143 non-repetitive nasal swab samples were collected from volunteers, where 53.8% (n; 77/143) were HCWs, 33.6% (n; 48/143) medical students, and 12.6% (n; 18/143) resident students. The prevalence of nasal carriers of S. aureus was 22.4% (n; 32/143), among them, 40.6% (n; 13/32) were identified as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA( carriers. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that erythromycin (68.8%, n; 22/32) and ciprofloxacin (15.6%, n; 5/32) had the highest and lowest resistance rate, respectively. The frequency of resistance genes in the strains was as follows; ermC (n; 17/32, 53.1%), ermA (n; 11/32, 34.4%), ermB (n; 6/32, 18.7%), ereA (n; 3/32, 9.4%). Moreover, 50.0% (n; 16/32), 28.1% (n; 9/32) and 21.8% (n; 7/32) of isolates were strongly, weakly and moderately biofilm producer, respectively. Macrolides-lincosamides-streptogramins B (MLSB) antibiotic resistance among S. aureus isolates from HCWs nasal carriage have found significant prevalence rates throughout the globe. It is crucial to remember that the development of biofilms and MLS B antibiotic resistance are both dynamic processes.
