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

This study investigated the identification, antimicrobial resistance patterns, and phenotypic and genotypic traits of 30 Klebsiella isolates recovered from diverse animal species and infection sites. MALDI-TOF MS demonstrated higher accuracy in species-level identification than conventional phenotypic approaches, revealing a predominance of Klebsiella pneumoniae (80%), followed by K. variicola, K. aerogenes, and K. oxytoca. Multidrug resistance was detected in 46.6% of isolates, while 43.3% were extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) producers carrying genes such as blaTEM, blaCTX, and blaSHV. One carbapenemase-producing isolate was confirmed, and carbapenemase-encoding genes (blaOXA-48, blaNDM, blaKPC) were identified in additional strains. Notably, hypermucoviscosity was observed in four isolates, including the first report of a hypermucoviscous K. variicola from a dog. These findings highlight the presence of antimicrobial-resistant Klebsiella isolates in animal sources and support the need for integrated One Health surveillance.
