Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Dust from Kindergarten Environments: A Systematic Review of Occurrence, Diversity, Determinants, and Exposure Implications.

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
Kindergarten environments combine high microbial exposure with increased immunological vulnerability, yet antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in kindergarten dust remain poorly characterized. This systematic review synthesized evidence on the occurrence and potential health relevance of ARGs in kindergarten dust. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched. Four studies from China, Hong Kong, and Norway (2018-2024) met the inclusion criteria. ARGs were detected in all kindergarten dust samples, indicating that dust is a consistent reservoir of antibiotic resistance determinants. A consensus resistome (classes detected in ≥2 studies) encompassed sulfonamide, macrolide-lincosamide-streptogramin B (MLSB), tetracycline, beta-lactam, aminoglycoside, and multidrug resistance genes; beta-lactam resistance genes were the only class reported in all four studies. Clinically important ARGs associated with last-resort antibiotics, including
