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

BACKGROUND/

objectiveThe present study focused on the analysis of the Spanish clone belonging to the successful 4,[5],12:i:- monophasic variant of

methodsAll isolates of the clone recovered in a Spanish region from human clinical samples between 2008 and 2018 (N = 14) were investigated using microbiological approaches and genome sequence analysis. In addition, they were compared with isolates from the years 2000 to 2003 (N = 21), which were previously characterized but had not yet been sequenced.

resultsPhylogenetic analyses indicate that all isolates are closely related (differing by 1 to 103 SNPs) but belong to two clades termed A and B. With few exceptions, clade A comprised isolates of the first period, also including two "older" control strains, LSP 389/97 and LSP 272/98. Clade B only contained isolates from the second period. Isolates from both periods were resistant to antibiotics and biocides, with almost all resistance genes located on large IncC plasmids, additionally carrying pSLT-derived virulence genes. The number of resistance genes was highly variable, resulting in a total of 22 ABR (antibiotic biocide resistance) profiles. The number of antibiotic resistance genes, but not that of biocide resistance genes, was considerably lower in isolates from the second than from the first period (with averages of 5.5 versus 9.6 genes). Importantly, IS

conclusionsthe observed reduction in the number of antibiotic resistance genes could correlate with the loss of adaptive advantage originating from the ban on the use of antibiotics as feed additives implemented in the European Union since 2006, facilitated by the intrinsic instability of the IncC plasmids.
