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
Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a globally distributed bacterium in estuarine and coastal waters, poses a significant threat to seafood safety. The spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in V. parahaemolyticus transcends phylogenetic, geographic, and ecological boundaries, raising concerns about its impact on marine ecosystems. This study investigated the prevalence and AMR profiles of V. parahaemolyticus in seafood in retail markets in Zhangzhou City, China. A total of 288 aquatic samples were collected aseptically from July 2023 to June 2024. Sixty-one V. parahaemolyticus isolates were identified using standard methods (cultural, biochemical, PCR) and characterized for virulence genes, AMR genes, antibiotic susceptibility, and molecular type. Multi-drug resistance (MDR) was then analyzed. The overall isolation rate of V. parahaemolyticus was 21% (61/288). A significant proportion of isolates exhibited high resistance to minocycline (97%), penicillin (93%), and cefazolin (90%). Lower resistance rates were observed for piperacillin (3%), ceftriaxone (5%), ceftazidime (7%), and cefoperazone (7%). Multi-antimicrobial resistance (MAR) indices revealed that 54% of isolates were resistant to more than ten antimicrobials. ERIC-PCR and RAPD typing grouped the isolates into four clusters each, with the majority (86.89% and 88.13%, respectively) belonging to Group I, indicating a high degree of genetic similarity among many isolates. The high prevalence of MDR V. parahaemolyticus in retail seafood suggests excessive antimicrobial use in aquaculture practices within this region. Effective antimicrobial stewardship programs, coupled with comprehensive surveillance, are urgently needed to mitigate the development and spread of AMR in V. parahaemolyticus and safeguard both human health and the health of marine ecosystems from pollution linked to aquaculture practices.
