Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of Escherichia Coli O111 serotypes.

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.
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
aimThe purpose of this study was to characterize phenotypically and genotypically the serotypes of the E. coli O111 associated with diarrheal disease and assess the variation among serotypes in terms of specific virulence factors and HeLa cells adherence patterns.
backgroundEscherichia coli O111 serogroups are prevalent in endemic or sporadic cases of diarrhea, especially in developing areas. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 54 strains of E. coli O111 isolated from diarrheal and healthy cases were included in this study. Flagella antigens of motile and non-motile strains were identified by fliC-RFLP method (H types) and confirmed with agglutination test using H-specific antisera. All strains were tested for the presence of 5 different gene regions associated with virulence (eaeA, eaeB, bfpA, sxt and EAF plasmid) by PCR and the patterns of bacterial attachment to HeLa cells was assayed in cell culture.
resultsOf 54 E. coli O111 strains, 89% were typeable with standard H antisera and the remaining 11% of strains were non-motile (H -). Twenty-three different H type were distinguished among the O111 strains by PCR-RFLP. The most common serotypes included H21, H9, H2, H6 and H12 (48%). Serotypes O111:H9 were represented by strains with 2 patterns of virulence genes (eaeA (+) /bfpA (+) /EAE(+), and eaeA (+) /bfpA (-) /EAE(-) ) and serotype H14 was represented by strains with the single eaeA (+) /bfpA (+) /EAE(-) combination. Four distinct patterns of adherence were distinguished: LA, LLA, AA and DA. All of serotypes with the eaeA (+) /bfpA (+) /EAE(+), or eaeA(+)/bfpA(+)/EAE(-), combination isolated from children with diarrhea exhibited the LA pattern, and serotypes with eaeA(+)/bfpA(-)/EAF(-) showed the LLA, while the majority of the strains isolated from healthy cases exhibited the DA, AA and NA patterns.
conclusionStrains of this O serogroup represented a diverse of serotypes with a variety of virulence factors and mechanisms of pathogenesis.
