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

Background: Materials and Methods: A prospective investigation was conducted in medical wards of Tainan Hospital, Ministry of Health and Welfare, Tainan, Taiwan, from January 2011 to January 2013. Adult patients were followed up for the development of CDI. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of TLR2 and TLR4 were analyzed to assess the relationship between genetic polymorphisms and the development of CDI. A mouse model of CDI was used to investigate the pathogenic role of TLRs in CDI, TLR2 and TLR4 knockout (Tlr2-/- and Tlr4-/-) mice. Results: In the prospective study, 556 patients were enrolled, and 6.5% (36) of patients, accounting for 3.59 episodes per 1000 patient-days, developed CDI. Of 539 patients with available blood samples, the TLR2 rs3804099 polymorphism was more often noted in those with CDI than in those without CDI (64.5% Conclusion: The TLR2 rs3804099 polymorphism is marginally associated with the development of CDI, and the pathogenic role of TLR2 is further supported by a mouse model.
