Molecular serotyping and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of Pasteurella multocida isolated from cases of hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle from selected districts of Keffa and Bench Sheko zones, South West Ethiopia.
Article in BMC microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundHemorrhagic septicemia is a highly fatal disease of cattle caused by the bacteria; Pasteurella multocida serotypes B and E in Asia and Africa respectively. Even though the capsular serotype E is considered to be the common cause of Hemorrhagic septicemia in Africa, there is not enough evidence that other serotypes are not involved. Furthermore, the serotypes currently circulating in South West Ethiopia have not been identified. This study was carried out to identify circulating capsular serotypes of Pasteurella multocida and assess its antimicrobial resistance on hemorrhagic Septicemic cattle through bacterial isolation, molecular identifications, and antimicrobial susceptibility tests in Keffa and Bench Sheko Zones of South West Ethiopia Peoples' Regional State.
resultsThe bacteriological analysis from 45 purposively collected nasopharyngeal swab samples of hemorrhagic Septicemic cattle revealed that 12 (26.7%) isolates were identified as Pasteurella multocida. Similarly, the molecular analysis of these isolates revealed all twelve (12) isolates were confirmed to be Pasteurella multocida. On further capsular typing, serotype B (n = 5, 41.6%) and E (n = 5, 41.6%) were the confirmed circulating strains in the area while two (n = 2, 16.6%) isolates formed non-specific bands. All the Pasteurella multocida isolates were susceptible to Gentamicin (100%), Chloramphenicol (100%), Oxytetracycline (91.7%), and Streptomycin (75%). However, all the isolates showed multidrug resistance (100%), to four antibiotics "Ampicillin, Clindamycin, Penicillin-G, and Vancomycin".
conclusionsMolecular analysis of the study isolates confirmed serotypes B and E as the etiology for Hemorrhagic septicemia in cattle in the study area. A multivalent vaccine comprising serotypes B and E is recommended to prevent outbreaks along with early treatment of suspected cases during the pyretic stage using antibiotics that are effective against the strains.
