On the Difficulty to Detect Carbapenem Resistance in the Environment: Characterisation of Escherichia coli With Reduced Carbapenem Susceptibility Isolated in a French River.
Article in Environmental microbiology reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 5 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
During an 18-month longitudinal study, bi-monthly water samples were taken upstream and downstream of a watershed. In order to detect carbapenem-resistant E. coli, the CHROMIDCarba medium was used. Of the 863 isolates collected from 144 samples, E. coli identification was confirmed for only seven of them, isolated on the same day. For six isolates, a slightly reduced susceptibility to carbapenems was observed. The results of the whole genome sequencing indicate that the six isolates belong to the same clone (O8:H7, ST196). Furthermore, a mutation of the ompC porin coupled with the presence of the bla
