Exploring the dynamic relationship between antimicrobial resistance, virulence fitness, and host responses in Listeria monocytogenes infections.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Listeriosis is a severe zoonotic disease caused by Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes), which can be acquired through animal source foods. This pathogen shows unique virulence fitness allowing it to penetrate and survive inside host cells causing extremely dangerous symptoms. Therefore, we aimed to correlate the clinical outcomes with the antimicrobial resistance and virulence profiles of L. monocytogenes. This is crucial for improving disease management, developing new therapeutic strategies, enhancing public health and food safety, and advancing scientific knowledge. Therefore, we assessed the antimicrobial resistance and virulence profiles of L. monocytogenes isolated from various sources, along with their potential to cause disease, using an in vivo rabbit model. Based on identification criteria, 47 L. monocytogenes isolates (15.7%) were recovered with the highest detection rates among rabbits (22%). Unfortunately, all the investigated isolates showed multidrug resistance (MDR) as well as multi-virulent profiles with 45 highly heterogeneous clusters. Noteworthy, the degree of illnesses of the experimentally infected rabbits was dependent on the virulence profiles. Specific nervous manifestations and severe histopathological alterations were observed in experimental rabbits infected with highly virulent isolates confirming that the potential ability of this pathogen to produce a disease is not always decipherable from its virulence arrays. Finally, it was confirmed that managing infections caused by L. monocytogenes has become increasingly challenging due to its high antimicrobial resistance, strong virulence, and the severe pathological effects linked to its virulence factors.
