Gram-positive oral bacteria as reservoirs of transferable antimicrobial resistance genes in dentistry.
Article in Journal of conservative dentistry and endodontics, 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
Background: The oral cavity is a complex microbial ecosystem that acts as a reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes associated with antibiotics used in dental practice, particularly in Gram-positive bacteria. Aims: This study aimed to analyze antimicrobial resistance genes in oral isolates of Materials and Methods: Two hundred and fifty isolates were analyzed. Microbiological identification and antimicrobial susceptibility tests were performed using MicroScan in accordance with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines. Polymerase chain reaction was used to detect resistance genes; Statistical Analysis: Descriptive statistics were applied to assess phenotypic resistance, co Results: Resistance was primarily associated with Conclusions: The oral cavity acts as a reservoir of transferable antimicrobial resistance genes in Gram-positive bacteria, with co-resistance and MDR patterns relevant to dental practice.
