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

Orthopedic infection is refractory to cure. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is the main causative pathogen responsible for orthopedic infection. S. aureus is capable of not only colonizing bone matrix, but also invading osteoblasts, which may play a significant role in the persistence and recurrence of osteomyelitis. Internalization requires the involvement of cytoskeletal elements, including actin microfilaments, microtubules and clathrin-coated pits. Microfilaments are most significant in the invasion process. S. aureus is capable of remaining alive in osteoblasts for a long period of time. Decreased sensitivity to antibiotics capable of penetrating host cells increases the difficulties of eradicating S. aureus. Osteoblasts, invaded by S. aureus, play a significant role in the initiation and maintenance of inflammatory immune responses. These osteoblasts recruit leukocytes and phagocytes to the site of inflammation via the expression of cytokines. Apoptosis is observed in osteoblasts invaded by S. aureus. Recruitment of osteoclasts and other immunocytes plays a crucial role in the resorption and destruction of bone.
