Antimicrobial resistance of coagulase-negative
Article in Open veterinary journal, 2025. 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: The microbiota of the external ear of cats comprises different types of bacteria that can change due to intrinsic or extrinsic factors. Coagulase-negative Aim: This study aimed to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility of CoNS strains obtained from the external ear of healthy cats in Talca, Chile, as a possible zoonotic risk. Methods: Ear swabs were obtained from 31 healthy cats. Bacterial culture and morphological analysis were performed on the samples. MALDI-TOF was used to identify CoNS strains, which were tested against a panel of 11 antibiotics using the Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method. Fisher's exact test was used to determine the association between the epidemiological variables of the patients and the antimicrobial susceptibility of CoNS strains. Results: Nine CoNS strains were isolated from the ear of seven healthy cats (prevalence 22.58%). Conclusion: The ears of healthy cats can act as a reservoir for antibiotic-resistant CoNS, with a potential risk of transmission to humans. These preliminary results are the first to be reported in Talca, Chile.
