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

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health and environmental challenge, driven by complex interactions among microbial communities, resistance genes, and selective pressures in various ecological niches. Traditional surveillance procedures often fall short in capturing the full diversity and dynamics of resistance reservoirs in the environment. This review examines the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) with next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies for comprehensive resistome profiling. We discuss advances in multi-omics approaches, particularly metagenomics, microbiome-based analytics, and metatranscriptomics. We also highlight computational workflows that enable high-resolution mapping of resistance genes, their mobile genetic elements, and host associations. The role of AI/ML in resistome prediction, classification, and source tracking, as well as the incorporation of environmental metadata for contextual interpretation is discussed based on the selected literature. Moreover, we assess current challenges and propose future directions for developing standardized, scalable, and interpretable bioinformatic pipelines in AMR surveillance. This review primarily elucidates the potential of integrated AI-omics platforms to revolutionize aquatic environmental AMR monitoring and inform risk assessment and mitigation strategies.
