1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The effects of wastewater irrigation on antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), mobile genetic elements (MGEs), and bacterial communities in plant-associated microbiomes and soils are still poorly understood. We conducted a column experiment using Leptosol and Vertisol monoliths, planted with cilantro (Coriandrum sativum) and irrigated for eight weeks with untreated (UWW) or treated (TWW) wastewater, with or without spiked antibiotics and disinfectants. Total community-DNA was analysed by qPCR and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Third-generation cephalosporin-resistant (3GCR) enterobacteria were isolated. Spiked WW irrigation increased ARG and MGE relative abundances in preferential flow path soil. In the rhizosphere, Leptosol exhibited higher ARG and MGE relative abundances than Vertisol. Spiking increased relative abundances of class 1 integrons, sulfonamide, tetracycline resistance genes in soil and rhizosphere, and erythromycin and fluoroquinolone resistance genes in phyllosphere. Soil type primarily shaped bacterial community composition in preferential flow path soil and rhizosphere, followed by spiking, whereas WW type influenced only rhizosphere bacterial community composition. 3GCR strains of the Citrobacter freundii complex genotype Ci-1a_Bx-C2 were isolated exclusively from soil and rhizosphere enrichments irrigated with (spiked or unspiked) TWW. We demonstrate the need to combine cultivation-independent and cultivation-based methods to investigate the effects of WW irrigation on soil and plant-associated microbiomes.
