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

Farm environments serve as reservoirs for antibiotic-resistant bacteria and mobile genetic elements (MGEs), spreading resistance genes. Klebsiella pneumoniae, a nosocomial opportunistic pathogen, often acquires resistance through MGEs. This study examined the prevalence, resistance patterns, and factors associated with MGEs in K. pneumoniae isolates, focusing on environmental and management practices. 48 pooled samples were collected from environmental niches in three major districts of Bangladesh including Dhaka, Barisal, and Sylhet and analyzed using standard microbiological techniques and PCR. Antibiotic susceptibility was assessed per CLSI (2020) guidelines, and multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains were identified. Genotypic resistance patterns and mobile genetic elements (MGEs), including class 1 integrons and plasmids, were detected via PCR. Fisher's exact test evaluated factors associated with MGEs. Overall, 66.66% tested positive for K. pneumoniae. Regarding resistance patterns, the highest resistance was observed to ertapenem (90.6%) and ampicillin (84%), while complete sensitivity was noted to several antibiotics, including amikacin and tigecycline. Among the tested isolates, 53.12% were identified as MDR. Genotypic analysis revealed that bla
