Prevalence of multi-drug resistant and extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae among meat products sold at Sohag Governorate, Egypt.

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
Meat products (MPs) are among the most commonly consumed food items in Egypt, and may serve as a potential vehicle for transmission of Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) to humans. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of E. coli and K. pneumoniae in MPs marketed in Sohag Governorate, Egypt, with a particular focus on extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL)-producing and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC), as well as to evaluate their antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles. Therefore, a total of 150 MP samples (30 of each burger, kofta, luncheon, minced meat, and sausage) were randomly collected from the stores and supermarkets in Sohag Governorate and subjected to bacteriological examinations. E. coli and K. pneumoniae were detected in 10% and 4% of the samples, respectively. Among the isolates, 66.7% of both E. coli and K. pneumoniae were multi-drug resistant (MDR), and all the isolates had a multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index above 0.2. Moreover, 53.3% of E. coli and 33.3% of K. pneumoniae isolates were ESBL-producers, and demonstrated higher levels of co-resistance to non-β-lactam antibiotics, compared to non-ESBL-producers isolates. PCR analysis revealed the presence of resistance and virulence genes in the investigated E. coli isolates (n = 10), including bla
