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
This study aimed to investigate the microbial community structure and the presence of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria (ARB), Antibiotic Resistance Genes (ARGs), and antimicrobial residues in an urban stream adjacent to an informal settlement in Brazil. Water samples collected during the winter of 2021 (n = 7) were analysed using culture-dependent and -independent methods. Microbial community structure was assessed by 16S rRNA sequencing, while bacterial isolates were characterized by Chlorhexidine Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (CHX-MIC) and whole-genome sequencing. Free carbapenemase ARGs were screened by conventional PCR and selected antimicrobial residues were quantified by UHPLC-MS/MS. The bacterial community was dominated by phyla Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, Proteobacteria, Campylobacterota, Actinobacteriota, and Patescibacteria. Abundant (> 5%) families included Ruminococcaceae, Prevotellaceae, Moraxellaceae, and Arcobacteraceae, associated with faecal contamination and antimicrobial resistance. Urban stream bacterial isolates (31/66) belonged mainly to the genera Aeromonas, Citrobacter, Escherichia, Serratia, Chryseobacterium, Elizabethkingia with a high percentage of phenotypic resistance to third-generation cephalosporin and carbapenems. WGS of some isolates (16/31) revealed the co-production of ESBL and carbapenemase ARGs as well as Inc-type plasmids, efflux pumps and virulence genes. CHX-MICs ranged from 0.5 to 128 mg/L, with Klebsiella pneumoniae and Serratia marcescens showing the highest values and harboring qac genes and IncHI2 plasmids, respectively. Azithromycin, ceftriaxone, levofloxacin, and chlorhexidine were detected at up to 2.39, 1.18, 0.14, and 0.43 mg/L, respectively. Notably, ceftriaxone-positive water samples also contained ARB and free ARGs (bla
