Evaluation of the polymorphisms associated with tandem repeats for Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain typing.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 37 papers.
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
We report on the development of a scheme for the typing of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, multiple-locus variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA). We first evaluated the polymorphisms of 201 tandem repeat loci selected from more than 3,000 such sequences present in strain PAO1 with a test collection of 12 genotypically distinct clinical strains. Seven VNTR loci which can be easily scored with the technology used here were identified and used to genotype a collection of 89 clinical isolates that had previously been classified into 46 ribotypes, including 2 widespread ribotypes. Seventy-one different MLVA genotypes could be distinguished. With only two exceptions, strains with identical ribotypes were grouped together upon cluster analysis of the MLVA data. The 27 isolates with the most frequent ribotype were divided into 14 MLVA types, and the 18 isolates with the second most frequent ribotype were divided into 15 MLVA types. Analysis of a subset of 17 strains belonging to the major ribotype by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with the enzyme SpeI distinguished seven types, identical to the number of MLVA types in this subset. Our data show that MLVA typing of P. aeruginosa based on the first set of loci has a high discriminatory power. Because MLVA is highly reproducible and easily portable among laboratories, it represents a very promising tool for the molecular surveillance of P. aeruginosa. A free, online strain identification service based on the genotyping data produced herein has been developed.
