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

We studied the usefulness of flow cytometry for detection of vancomycin resistance in Enterococcus faecalis by direct binding of commercially available fluorescent vancomycin to cells obtained from culture. The cells were stained with Vancomycin@FL, sonicated and additionally stained with propidium iodide (PI). Regarding to inductive mechanism of vanA-mediated vancomycin resistance, resistant reference strain was also pre-incubated with vancomycin. PI staining divided cells into two subpopulations. There were significantly lower mean FL1 fluorescence values and mean fluorescence per particle (FL1/FSC) in reference vancomycin-resistant strain than in reference and clinical strains sensitive to this antibiotic. Pre-incubation with vancomycin of vancomycin resistant enterococci strain modified Vancomycin@FL binding, however, cells remained easy to differ. We have demonstrated new, quick and sensitive method for detection of vancomycin resistant strains of E. faecalis. The study proved possibility of detection of vancomycin resistance caused by presence of vanA gene by staining cells with Vancomycin@FL. Flow cytometry approach study of E. faecalis vancomycin resistance by detection of Vancomycin@FL binding to the bacterial cells.
