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

Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a Gram-negative bacterium known for causing both intestinal and extraintestinal infections in humans. Among extraintestinal infections, urinary tract infections (UTIs) are particularly prevalent and impactful. In Colombia, limited information is available regarding the molecular epidemiology of E. coli. This lack of data hinders the understanding of the local epidemiological landscape and the identification of pathogenic lineages that may contribute to public health concerns. This study aimed to characterize an E. coli strain isolated from a 24-year-old female patient with a community-acquired lower UTI, focusing on genotypic analysis through whole-genome shotgun sequencing (WGSS) and subsequent bioinformatics investigations. The identified strain belongs to phylogroup F, with serotype O1:H7 and sequence type (ST) 59. Several virulence factors, including traT and afimbrial adhesins (afaC), were identified, with afaC being notably uncommon in ST59 phylogroup F. In addition, an antibiotic susceptibility test was performed, and the isolate was found to be sensitive to all the antibiotics tested. This work contributes to the understanding of E. coli phylogroup F in Colombia and provides valuable genomic data, shedding light on the virulence profile of this strain in lower urinary tract infections.
