1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Ionophores are a class of antibiotics used widely in animal production as anti-coccidials and for growth promotion. Since ionophores are not used in human medicine, it has largely been assumed that they do not contribute to medically important antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Nonetheless, there is increasing concern that ionophore usage could co-select for clinically relevant AMR, since the ionophore resistance genes
