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

BACKGROUND/

objectivesAntimicrobial resistance is a major public health concern requiring integrated surveillance across human, animal, and environmental sectors.

methodsEnterococci were recovered from 66 samples collected in Lisbon, Portugal, between late 2022 and early 2024, including healthy and sick humans, healthy and sick animals, canteen food, surface water, and public transport surfaces. RAPD-PCR was used to assess genetic diversity among 90 isolates and select 74 representative enterococci. Species identification, resistance gene screening, and virulence gene detection were performed by PCR. Antimicrobial susceptibility was assessed by disk diffusion against 12 antibiotics using CLSI criteria. Vancomycin resistance was further evaluated by agar dilution and Etest when applicable.

results

conclusionsEnterococci from human, animal, and environmental sources carried antimicrobial resistance and virulence-associated traits. These findings support integrated One Health surveillance to monitor resistant enterococci across interconnected reservoirs.
