Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of antimicrobial resistance in coagulase-negative staphylococci from bone lesions in broiler chickens.
Article in BMC veterinary research, 2026. 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
backgroundLameness in broiler chickens, frequently caused by bacterial chondronecrosis with osteomyelitis (BCO), poses a major challenge to intensive poultry production due to its adverse impact on animal welfare and farm economics. While Staphylococcus aureus has traditionally been considered the principal staphylococcal pathogen in poultry, coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are increasingly implicated in skeletal infections. This study aimed to characterize the phenotypic and genotypic antimicrobial resistance profiles of 93 CoNS isolates representing 12 Staphylococcus species. Isolates were recovered from bone and joint lesions of lame broiler chickens from 25 commercial flocks in Poland and were characterized using disk diffusion testing, PCR-based detection of selected resistance genes, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and exploratory whole-genome sequencing (WGS).
resultsDisk diffusion testing and PCR screening revealed a high prevalence of resistance to penicillin, doxycycline, and erythromycin, with bla
conclusionsThese findings indicate that CoNS associated with broiler skeletal lesions can harbor diverse AMR determinants linked to several widely used antimicrobial classes. Our findings are primarily relevant from an epidemiological and surveillance perspective. The study also adds new genomic and epidemiological context to current knowledge of AMR in broiler-associated CoNS and supports their inclusion in ongoing veterinary and One Health-oriented surveillance efforts.
