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

Clostridium difficile is well recognized as the most common infectious cause of nosocomial diarrhea. The incidence and severity of C. difficile infection (CDI) is increasing worldwide. Here, we evaluated simultaneously the transcriptional changes in the human colorectal epithelial Caco-2 cells and in C. difficile after infection. A total of 271 transcripts in Caco-2 cells and 207 transcripts in C. difficile were significantly differentially expressed at 1 time point during CDI. We used the gene ontology annotations and protein-protein network interactions to underline a framework of target molecules that could potentially play a key role during CDI. These genes included those associated with cellular metabolism, transcription, transport, cell communication, and signal transduction. Our data identified certain key factors that have previously been reported to be involved in CDI, as well as novel determinants that may participate in a complex mechanism underlying the host response to infection, bacterial adaptation, and pathogenesis.
