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

Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacterium that can contaminate various food products and is the causative agent of listeriosis, a severe and life-threatening foodborne illness. This study aimed to assess the occurrence of Listeria species in fresh vegetables and market garden produce from Côte d'Ivoire. Conducted over a 9-week period, this work analyzed 135 samples of fresh vegetables and market garden produce (including lettuces, carrots, cabbage, tomatoes, and cucumbers) collected from 3 major markets in 3 districts of Abidjan. Among the 135 samples, Listeria spp. were found in 11 (8.15%), including Listeria innocua in 8 (5.92%), Listeria ivanovii in 1 (0.74%), and L. monocytogenes in 2 (1.48%). Genetic analysis was performed using restriction fragment length polymorphism targeting the 16S rRNA gene. Further characterization of genetic lineages, serotypes, and virulence genes was achieved through polymerase chain reaction. The two L. monocytogenes isolates belong to the genetic lineage I, associated with serogroups 1/2b, 3b, 4b, 4d, 4e, and 7. They harbored key virulence genes from Listeria pathogenicity island-1, such as actA, hly, prfA, and pclB, as well as internalin genes (inlA, inlJ, and inlC), indicating their potential pathogenicity. This study highlights the presence of Listeria spp., including L. monocytogenes, in fresh vegetables sold in Abidjan markets, underscoring a potential health risk for consumers.
