Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Heavy Metal Contamination in Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus): A Public Health Risk Assessment in Bangladesh.

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
backgroundThe presence of Klebsiella pneumoniae and heavy metals in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) has significant public health concerns.
objectivesThis study was aimed at detecting antibiotic resistance genes in K. pneumoniae and determine the heavy metal contamination in tilapia.
methodsIn total, 250 tilapias were aseptically collected from Khulna, Bangladesh, from 12 October to 12 November 2023. K. pneumoniae were isolated using real-time PCR targeting 16S-23S ITS, IntI, bla
resultsThe overall prevalence of Klebsiella spp. was 35.6% (89/250). Out of 30 Klebsiella spp., 24 were positive for K. pneumoniae, which were highly resistant to tetracycline, ampicillin and ceftazidime. Bivariate analysis showed significant correlations between the antibiotics. MDR isolates were 70.83% (17/24), and the multiple antibiotic resistance index ranged from 0.08 to 0.7. Misuse or overuse of antibiotics was the potential predictor of MDR. Among 24 K. pneumoniae, 11 were positive for IntI, 15 for bla
conclusionsThe prevalence of K. pneumoniae and heavy metals in tilapia in this study should be a matter of concern to public health risk management.
