Isolation and molecular identification of bacteria from sheep with eye infections.
Article in Open veterinary journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Ocular disease in sheep is a severe concern for the health and welfare of livestock animals, as well as losses of productivity and value to the livestock industry. Aim: This study aimed to isolate and characterize bacteria in sheep with eye disease on the molecular level. Methods: One hundred fifty sheep with eye infections were treated, and tissue samples were taken for microbiological studies. We isolated bacteria from traditional cultures and discovered molecules by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of single bacterial genes. Results: A total of 150 ocular samples were collected from sheep, with bacterial growth observed in 120 samples, resulting in an isolation rate of 80%. Conclusion: This study suggests the prevalence of bacterial infection in sheep eyes and argues the utility of molecular methods in veterinary diagnosis. Record levels of antibiotic resistance must be maintained in animal husbandry and the use of antibiotic stewardship programs.
