Mobile Genetic Elements Associated with Antimicrobial Resistance
Open accessAbstract
Strains of bacteria resistant to antibiotics, particularly those that are multiresistant, are an increasing major health care problem around the world. It is now abundantly clear that both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria are able to meet the evolutionary challenge of combating antimicrobial chemotherapy, often by acquiring preexisting resistance determinants from the bacterial gene pool.

Claims other papers make about this one
Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Some determinants reflect intrinsic or species-associated background resistance, whereas others are acquired, horizontally transferable and clinically relevant.”
From Integrated Phenotypic and Sequencing-Based Resistome Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Determinants in a Sample of Commercial Farm-Animal Probiotic Products (2026) · cites this paper as [11]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“the mere presence of an AMR-associated database hit does not necessarily imply public-health risk.”
From Integrated Phenotypic and Sequencing-Based Resistome Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Determinants in a Sample of Commercial Farm-Animal Probiotic Products (2026) · cites this paper as [11]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Intrinsic determinants in Enterococcus faecium, for example, must be interpreted differently from mobile glycopeptide, oxazolidinone, colistin, extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) or carbapenemase genes [11,12,13,14].”
From Integrated Phenotypic and Sequencing-Based Resistome Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance Determinants in a Sample of Commercial Farm-Animal Probiotic Products (2026) · cites this paper as [11]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“This framework is consistent with the broader horizontal gene transfer (HGT) literature, which emphasizes that mobility, ecological opportunity and recipient compatibility determine whether an ARG becomes a clinically relevant hazard [11,12,16,17].”
The check wasn’t confident either way, so it gives no verdict — never disputed.
In the citing paper
“The ESKAPEE species E. hormaechei 107 was detected in 77 food samples with rel. ab. = 0.02% (Figure 6C)”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
