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

Incompatible plasmids play a crucial role in the horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance in bacteria, particularly in Gram-negative bacteria, and have thus attracted considerable attention in the field of microbiological research. In the 1970s, these plasmids, housing an array of resistance genes and genetic elements, were predominantly discovered. They exhibit a broad presence in diverse host bacteria, showcasing diversity in geographic distribution and the spectrum of antibiotic resistance genes. The complex genetic structure of plasmids further accelerates the accumulation of resistance genes in Gram-negative bacteria. This article offers a comprehensive review encompassing the discovery process, host distribution, geographic prevalence, carried resistance genes, and the genetic structure of different types incompatible plasmids, including IncA, IncC, IncF, IncL, IncM, IncH, and IncP. It serves as a valuable reference for enhancing our understanding of the role of these different types of plasmids in bacterial evolution and the dissemination of antibiotic resistance.
