Tracking spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales between humans and companion animals: successes and challenges.
Article in Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE) pose a critical public health threat. Recent reports highlight that CPE emergence in companion animals mirrors that found in humans, underscoring the need for a One Health approach to investigating transmission routes. This Perspective article outlines an interdisciplinary model developed as part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded Pathogen Genomics Center of Excellence at the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) to investigate CPE transmission across human and animal populations. This represents one of the first operational One Health models linking companion animal and human CPE via whole genome sequencing (WGS) at a state-level public health laboratory. Using WGS, 94 companion animal isolates were characterized and revealed diverse genetic lineages from December 2022 through December 2024 in the USA. Genetically linked clusters were identified, including CPE isolates from companion animals and humans. One notable cluster linked human infections with CPE detected in a veterinary hospital. Despite the success of this approach to detect clusters, there were significant challenges, including investigation delays related to sequencing and epidemiology priorities and capacity, resource constraints, and human participant hesitancy. Our findings demonstrate the importance of integrating genomic data with clinical and epidemiological insights, fostering communication between veterinary and public health sectors, and expanding veterinary WGS infrastructure. Ultimately, we advocate for broader public health engagement in veterinary settings to mitigate antimicrobial resistance and improve surveillance of zoonotic transmission pathways.
