Genomic characterization of carbapenem-resistant
Article in Frontiers in cellular and infection microbiology, 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: Carbapenem-resistant Methods: A total of 97 non-duplicate CRAB isolates collected between 2024 and 2025 were included. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the VITEK-2 system, and biofilm formation was quantitatively assessed by the crystal violet method. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) was carried out on the Illumina platform to analyse multilocus sequence typing (MLST), capsular types, resistance genes and virulence genes. A phylogenetic tree was constructed based on single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Results: ST2 was the dominant clone (95.88%) among the 97 isolates, and KL3 was the most prevalent capsular type (83.51%). All isolates carried intrinsic Conclusion: CRAB isolates in this orthopaedic specialty hospital are dominated by the ST2/KL3 clone, which carries multiple resistance and virulence genes, exhibits a remarkably strong biofilm-forming ability, and shows a capsular switch trend from KL2 to KL3. Enhanced molecular surveillance of this dominant clone and increased attention to anti-biofilm strategies for orthopaedic implant-related infections are strongly recommended.
