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

Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPEs) have globally emerged and spread beyond human compartments. However, data in wild animals, especially from low- and middle-income countries, such as Algeria, are still very scarce. Here, we investigated CPEs recovered from feces samples collected between October 2021 and June 2023 from wild terrestrial and aquatic mammals, wild migratory/nesters/sedentary birds, and zoo animals, including their environment (water, food, and fecal samples of animal care workers) distributed over six Algerian provinces. Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales were characterized using MALDI-TOF-MS, Carba NP, immunochromatographic assay NG-Test CARBA 5, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, and whole-genome sequencing. Thirty CPEs were identified out of the 1,899 samples collected (1.6%). The carriage rate was higher in captive animals (3.2%) than in wild animals (1.2%). Twenty-six produced OXA-48, three OXA-244, and one OXA-181, along with CTX-M-15 ESBL. Clonal expansion of
