Environmental Risks of Antibiotics and Antibiotic Resistance Elements: Occurrence, Fate, and Assessment.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Antibiotics, antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have emerged as critical environmental contaminants posing serious ecological and public health concerns. The widespread occurrence and proliferation of ARB and ARGs in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and reclaimed wastewater (RWW) used for irrigation represent major pathways for their dissemination into the environment. Current knowledge indicates that ARGs from the environmental resistome can be transferred among diverse microbial communities, including clinically relevant human pathogens. Numerous studies have also linked the expansion of the environmental resistome to anthropogenic activities. Therefore, preventing and mitigating the spread of antibiotic resistance in the environment requires a deeper understanding of how resistance genes evolve, transfer, and persist across ecological compartments. This review synthesizes the current state of knowledge on the occurrence, prevalence, and detection of antibiotics, ARB, and ARGs in various environmental matrices, providing essential insights for developing preventive strategies and promoting the sustainable management of ecosystems.
