Multidrug-resistant Enterobacterales causing wound infections in Ibadan, Nigeria: Phenotypic resistance and detection of
Article in IJID regions, 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
Objectives: Carbapenem- and colistin-resistant Enterobacterales remain an important challenge in the management of wound infections in resource-limited settings. This study determined the species, antimicrobial resistance (AMR) phenotypes, and genotypes of antimicrobial-resistant Enterobacterales, as well as factors associated with Enterobacterales-positive wounds in Ibadan, southwestern Nigeria. Methods: Two hundred twenty-one nonrepetitive wound swabs and biopsies obtained from patients were processed to recover bacteria, which were identified using the API 20E system. AMR phenotypes and mechanisms were determined by the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and polymerase chain reactions, respectively. Structured questionnaires were used to collect patients' sociodemographic data and risk-factor data. Results: One hundred seventy-five (79.2%) samples were culture-positive. Enterobacterales accounted for 42.3% of isolates (74 of 175), with Conclusion: MDR-Enterobacterales account for about a quarter of the etiological agents of wound infections, with major implications for surgical site infections, as their extensive resistance profiles threaten the effectiveness of empirical therapy, increase the risk of treatment-refractory postoperative infections, and facilitate rapid hospital spread. The detection of Enterobacterales of critical priority carrying colistin- and carbapenem-resistance genes underscores the need for local genomic surveillance to monitor and control their spread; coordinated health system planning to ensure sustained access to effective antibiotics; strengthening infection prevention and control practices; improving antimicrobial stewardship; and implementing targeted patient-level risk-factor management.
