Glycointeractions in bacterial pathogenesis.
Review in Nature reviews. Microbiology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 124 papers.
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
Many important interactions between bacterial pathogens and their hosts are highly specific binding events that involve host or pathogen carbohydrate structures (glycans). Glycan interactions can mediate adhesion, invasion and immune evasion and can act as receptors for toxins. Several bacterial pathogens can also enzymatically alter host glycans to reveal binding targets, degrade the host cell glycans or alter the function of host glycoproteins. In recent years, high-throughput screening technologies, such as lectin, glycan and mucin microarrays, have transformed the field by identifying new bacterial-host glycointeractions, which are crucial for colonization, persistence and disease. In this Review, we discuss interactions involving both host and bacterial glycans that have a role in bacterial pathogenesis. We also highlight recent technological advances that have illuminated the glycoscience of microbial pathogenesis.
