Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhi on an Island: No H58, No Multidrug Resistance, but for How Long?
Article in mBio, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Little genomic data is available for typhoid fever from island nations, though the disease has a moderately high burden there. Sikorski et al. (M. J. Sikorski, T. H. Hazen, S. N. Desai, S. Nimarota-Brown, et al., mBio 13:e01920-22, 2022, https://doi.org/10.1128/mbio.01920-22) studied 306 Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi genomes from the Samoan Islands collected during 1983 to 2020 and reported dominance of a rare genotype, 2.5.4, and no H58 (genotype 4.3.1). They found pansusceptibility of all isolates to three first lines of antimicrobial agents (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, and cotrimoxazole). This commentary evaluates the importance of these findings for the Samoan Islands and how they can help the global typhoid community. The microbial community in the environment and human gut could have played a role in the lack of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). However, drug-resistant strains may arrive soon at the island, as their international spread is common. Further investigation would help the global typhoid community to better understand the evolution of an isolated pathogen community and the effect of vaccination there.
