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

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an opportunistic pathogen and frequent colonizer of human skin and mucosal membranes, including the vagina, with vaginal colonization reaching nearly 25% in some pregnant populations. MRSA vaginal colonization can lead to aerobic vaginitis (AV), and during pregnancy, bacterial ascension into the upper reproductive tract can lead to adverse birth outcomes. USA300, the most prominent MRSA lineage to colonize pregnant individuals, is a robust biofilm former and causative agent of invasive infections; however, little is known about how it colonizes and ascends in the female reproductive tract (FRT). Our previous studies showed that a MRSA mutant of seven fibrinogen-binding adhesins was deficient in FRT epithelial attachment and colonization. Using both monolayer and multilayer air-liquid interface cell culture models, we determine that one class of these adhesins, the fibronectin binding proteins (FnBPA and FnBPB), are critical for association with human vaginal epithelial cells (hVECs) and hVEC invasion through interactions with α
