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
Virulence genes are often present on pathogenicity islands (PAIs) and serve as markers for specific pathogenic types of Escherichia coli. We studied the prevalence of PAIs associated with diarrheagenic (DEC PAI markers) and uropathogenic (UPEC PAI markers) E. coli among strains isolates from various sources, considering their phylogenetic group affiliation and pathogenic potential. DEC PAI markers were detected in 41.7% of fecal E. coli (FEC), 46.4% of avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC), and 84.6% of UPEC. UPEC more frequently contained PAIs carrying the siderophore biosynthesis gene clusters in comparison with FEC or APEC. UPEC PAI markers were equally prevalent in ExPEC groups (APEC and UPEC); however, PAIs exhibited greater diversity in uropathogenic strains. A positive correlation was found between the prevalence of the PAI genes and phylogenetic group B2, as well as the number of virulence genes present.
