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

backgroundMannheimia haemolytica is a major bacterial pathogen associated with respiratory diseases in domestic ruminants, resulting in devastating economic losses in the global food production industry.

objectivesThis study aimed to isolate and assess the antibiotic resistance/sensitivity patterns of M. haemolytica associated with pneumonic pasteurellosis in sheep in the western Gojjam and Awi zones of Northwest Ethiopia.

methodsOne hundred and forty nasal swabs from sheep were collected using purposive sampling and subjected to standard bacteriological and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays. The antibiotic susceptibility of the isolates was assessed using Kirby-Bauer's disk diffusion method.

resultsThe findings of this study revealed that M. haemolytica was the primarily identified agent of pneumonic pasteurellosis in sheep. Molecular analysis confirmed 23 M. haemolytica isolates. The antibiotic susceptibility test results showed sensitivity to oxytetracycline (78.3%), streptomycin (78.3%), chloramphenicol (87%), kanamycin (100%), gentamicin (100%) and ampicillin (100%), and resistance to erythromycin (100%). Four isolates showed multidrug resistance with a MAR index greater than 0.3.

conclusionThe findings underscore the potential role of M. haemolytica in causing pneumonic pasteurellosis in sheep in the region. In this study, due to resource limitations, further serotype determination and characterization of antigenic relationships among the isolates were not conducted. Molecular characterization of strains using high-throughput sequencing technologies is needed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis and develop more effective, widely applicable vaccines and antimicrobial drugs.
