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

While human or animal models are often considered the gold standard experimental system for defining virulence factors, cell culture-based infection models have proven useful for identifying important virulence factors and for examining the interactions between pathogens and the epithelial barrier. The first step in infections for most mucosal pathogens involves binding (adhesion) to the epithelial cells that line the mucosa. Successful pathogens can then penetrate the barrier by (1) inducing their uptake (i.e., "entry" or "invasion") into epithelial cells, (2) crossing the barrier by inducing epithelial cell death, and/or (3) penetrating between cells. This chapter describes growth conditions to form polarized cultures, either two-dimensional monolayers or three-dimensional cysts, of various immortalized epithelial cell lines. It describes assays to measure key early interactions between P. aeruginosa and host cells, including binding, invasion, and cytotoxicity. Many virulence factors defined by these criteria have been shown to be important for pathogenesis of P. aeruginosa infections in animals or humans. These methods are also applicable to other pathogens.
