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

Staphylococcus aureus is the cause of serious vascular infections such as sepsis and endocarditis. These infections are notoriously difficult to treat, and it is believed that the ability of S. aureus to invade endothelial cells and persist intracellularly is a key mechanism for persistence despite ongoing antibiotic treatment. Here, we used dual RNA sequencing to study the simultaneous transcriptional response of S. aureus and human endothelial cells during in vitro infections. We revealed discrete and shared differentially expressed genes for both host and pathogen at the different stages of infection. While the endothelial cells upregulated genes involved in interferon signalling and antigen presentation during late infection, S. aureus downregulated toxin expression while upregulating genes related to iron scavenging. In conclusion, the presented data provide an important resource to facilitate functional investigations into host-pathogen interaction during S. aureus invasive infection and a basis for identifying novel drug target sites.
