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

objectivesCatheters are one of the factors for complicated urinary tract infections. Uropathogenic bacteria can attach to the catheter via cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH), form biofilms, and remain in urinary tract. The study was evaluated phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of fimbriae in MATERIALS AND

methodsUrine specimens were collected through catheters in patients with CAUTIs. Sixty bacterial isolates were identified by biochemical tests. For determination of biofilm formation a tissue culture plate was used. Microbial adhesion to hydrocarbons (MATH) was conducted for CSH determination. The mannose-sensitive haemagglutination (MSHA) and mannose-resistant haemagglutination (MRHA) were determined for type 1 and type 3 fimbriae. Finally, the presence of genes encoding fimbriae was determined by PCR.

resultsAll isolates showed strong CSH, biofilm capacity and MRHA phenotype. The results showed that 20% of UPEC and 23% of

conclusionThe phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of two bacterial species were highly similar. Also, the type of fimbriae affected bacterial biofilm formation through catheterization. It seems that
