Profiling of Bacterial Communities of Hospital Wastewater Reveals Clinically Relevant Genera and Antimicrobial Resistance Genes.

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
In Mexico, hospital wastewater (HWW) is a source of chemical and microbiological contamination, and it is released into the municipal sewage system without prior treatment. This water may contain pathogenic bacteria and antimicrobial resistance genes, which represent a risk to Public Health and the environment. So far, there are no studies that analyse this problem comprehensively, relating bacterial population structures, chemical contaminants, and seasonality. The aim of this work was to seasonally characterise the bacterial communities of HWW, including clinically relevant bacteria and resistance genes in Hospital Juárez de México (HJM), and to evaluate the impact of physicochemical factors on their composition. A one-year observational, cross-sectional study was conducted at five HWW discharge points of HJM. Fourteen physicochemical parameters were determined by using standard methodologies, and statistical differences between discharges and seasons were evaluated. Bacterial communities were analysed by targeted amplicon sequencing of the V3-V4 region of the
