Carriage rate of CPE, ESBL-producing coliforms and MRSA in community settings in Suriname.

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: Colonization by antimicrobial-resistant bacteria can cause difficult-to-treat infections, yet their carriage prevalence in Suriname is unknown. This cross-sectional study assessed intestinal community carriage and the molecular epidemiology of pathogens of public health importance, including carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales (CPE), ESBL-producing coliforms (ESBL-c) and MRSA. Methods: Faecal samples were collected from 310 non-hospitalized patients between October 2024 and February 2025 and analysed using selective culture and WGS. Results: The prevalence of ESBL carriage was 12.3% (95% CI: 8.4%-15.6%). Most ESBL/plasmid-mediated AmpC genes belonged to the Conclusions: This study demonstrated frequent ESBL carriage in community-dwelling individuals attending ambulatory care in Suriname. Genomic clustering suggests transmission or shared sources. In contrast, carriage of CPE and MRSA was uncommon. These findings may help clinicians and policymakers to make informed decisions and develop targeted strategies to limit the spread of antimicrobial resistance and improve global public health.
