Evaluation of Clostridium difficile Infection with PET/CT Imaging in a Mouse Model.
Article in Molecular imaging and biology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeExisting clinical or microbiological scores are not sensitive enough to obtain prompt identification of patients at risk of complicated Clostridium difficile infection (CDI). Our aim was to use a CDI animal model to evaluate 2-deoxy-2-[ PROCEDURES: CDI was induced with cefoperazone for 10 days followed by clindamycin 1 day before C. difficile inoculation. Mice were divided into wild type (n = 6), antibiotic without infection (AC n = 4), h001-infected (n = 5, ribotype 001), and h027-infected (n = 5, ribotype 027). Two days after inoculation, [
resultsh001 group showed symptoms for 4 days with 0 % mortality and a similar colon uptake than control animals (h001 0.52 ± 0.20, WT 0.42 ± 0.07, and AC 0.36 ± 0.06). The h027 group showed symptoms up to 7 days, with 66.7 % of mortality 4 days after infection, and significantly higher colon uptake (0.93 ± 0.38, p < 0.05). Clinical score was associated to colon and cecum uptake (rho = 0.78, p = 0.0001) (rho = 0.73, p = 0.0003).
conclusionHigh toxin producer ribotype 027 induced more severe CDI infections, correlating with higher colon and cecum [
