Review in Der Urologe. Ausg. A, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The interactions of host-specific and microbial factors are responsible for recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI). The anatomical properties of the female urogenital tract favor colonization by uropathogens. Local factors such as glucose concentration of the urine, stability of the lactobacilli population, the influence of estrogens, the activity of Tamm-Horsfall protein or of defensins, and disturbance of the systemic defense mechanisms dictate the course of an infection. The most prominent uropathogen is E. coli. It expresses various virulence factors including adhesions, toxins, iron uptake systems, and a capsule. It is still unclear if there are virulence factors characteristic for E. coli strains causing rUTI. The formation of intracellular reservoirs by invasion of uroepithelial cells by E. coli could be another, as yet little noticed cause for rUTI. Therefore, in cases of rUTI the application of intracellularly active antibiotics should be considered.
