Microbial profiles and antimicrobial susceptibility in recurrent and non-recurrent canine otitis externa in Brazil.
Article in Veterinary world, 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 and Aim: Canine otitis externa is a common inflammatory disorder in which bacterial and yeast proliferation may complicate treatment and contribute to recurrence. In Brazil, limited information is available comparing recurrent and non-recurrent cases while simultaneously characterizing microbial isolates and their antimicrobial susceptibility. This study compared clinical, otoscopic, and cytological findings between recurrent and non-recurrent otitis externa, identified bacterial and yeast isolates, evaluated their Materials and Methods: Fifty-seven dogs with otitis externa presented to a veterinary hospital in Brazil were evaluated by otoscopy and cytology. Ear secretions were cultured, and isolates were identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Antimicrobial susceptibility was evaluated by disk diffusion. Clinical and cytological findings were compared between recurrent and non-recurrent cases, and associations with disease status were assessed using Fisher's exact test and log-linear Poisson regression. Results: Cytology demonstrated bacterial proliferation in 54/57 (94.7%) and yeast proliferation in 25/57 (43.9%) samples. Microbial growth occurred in 46/57 (80.7%) samples, yielding 40 identified bacterial isolates and 16 Conclusion:
