Antimicrobial Susceptibility Patterns of Bacteria Associated With Hepatobiliary Disease in Dogs and Cats (2010-2019).
Article in Journal of veterinary internal medicine. 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
backgroundDescription of antibiotic susceptibility of isolates from dogs and cats with hepatobiliary disease is limited.
objectivesTo describe antibiotic susceptibility patterns of bacteria associated with hepatobiliary disease in dogs and cats over a 10 year-period. ANIMALS: Three hundred nine dogs and cats.
methodsBacterial species and antibiotic susceptibility data from positive bile and liver tissue cultures were reviewed from both a Veterinary Teaching Hospital and a private laboratory. Prevalence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria was assessed, along with its association with previous antibiotic administration.
resultsA total of 343 bacterial isolates were included from 310 cultures. Monobacterial cultures were more frequent (91%, 283/310). Gram-negative bacteria were predominant (67%, 227/340), with Escherichia coli (49%, 136/340), Staphylococcus spp. (14%, 47/340), and Enterococcus spp. (10%, 34/340) being the most prevalent isolates. Resistance of gram-negative bacteria were: amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (33%, 70/214), aminopenicillins (47%, 96/205), and fluoroquinolones (16%, 67/417); for gram-positive bacteria: amoxicillin-clavulanic acid (12%, 5/41), aminopenicillins (16%, 11/67), and fluoroquinolones (17%, 35/111). Resistance was significantly higher for aminopenicillins, first-generation cephalosporins, TMPS, tetracyclines, and fluoroquinolones during 2010-2014 compared to 2015-2019. MDR isolates comprised 40% (135/430) of all isolates, 30% (41/136) of E. coli, and 68% (23/34) of Enterococcus spp. A significantly higher incidence of MDR bacteria was observed in animals with previous antibiotic treatment (81%, 17/21) compared to those without (30%, 22/75; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL IMPORTANCE: Conducting culture and sensitivity testing remains crucial in dogs and cats suspected of hepatobiliary infection to ensure effective treatment.
