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

Enterococci cause serious infections due to a number of virulence factors and wide-spread antibiotic resistance. A molecular mechanism involved in the pathogenesis of enterococcal infections is oxidative stress. Enterococcus faecalis produces a variety of antioxidative enzymes involved in the oxidative stress response, a process that is regulated by several transcriptional regulators. In addition, direct production of free radicals derived from oxygen has been proved and hypothesized, respectively, to contribute to the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer and periodontitis. The understanding of molecular mechanisms behind the production of free radicals and the antioxidative status in E. faecalis might suggest new alternatives for the treatment of enterococcal infections and related diseases.
