The impact of anthropogenic activities on antimicrobial and heavy metal resistance in aquatic environments.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This study investigated the prevalence and co-occurrence of antimicrobial (AMR) and metal resistance (MR) in aquatic environments with different human impacts. Metagenomes from pristine, rural and urban sites in Australia were analyzed with AMR ++ and customized binning pipelines. AMR was present in all environments, while MR was mainly in rural and urban samples. AMR gene diversity was higher in rural and urban sites, exhibiting resistance to more antibiotic classes ( IMPORTANCE: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and metal resistance (MR) are critical global health concerns exacerbated by anthropogenic activities. The intricate mechanism underlying the interaction among anthropogenic activities, microbial communities, and resistance remains enigmatic. We developed novel bioinformatic pipelines to unveil this interaction in three aquatic environments. Our findings demonstrate the presence of specific bacterial communities that drive AMR and MR in rural and urban environments. This study underscores the significance of proper agricultural practices, comprehensive monitoring, and management strategies to reduce anthropogenic impacts on environmental resistance.
