Integrating Genomic Data into Public Health Surveillance for Multidrug-Resistant Organisms, Washington, USA.
Article in Emerging infectious diseases, 2025. 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
Mitigating antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a public health priority to preserve antimicrobial treatment options. The Washington State Department of Health in Washington, USA, piloted a process to leverage longitudinal genomic surveillance on the basis of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and a genomics-first cluster definition to enhance AMR surveillance. Here, we outline the approach to collaborative surveillance and describe the pilot using 6 carbapenemase-producing organism outbreaks of 3 species: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. We also highlight how we applied the approach to an emerging outbreak. We found that genomic and epidemiologic data define highly congruent outbreaks. By layering genomic and epidemiologic data, we refined linkage hypotheses and addressed gaps in traditional epidemiologic surveillance. With the accessibility of WGS, public health agencies must leverage new approaches to modernize surveillance for communicable diseases.
