Co-infection of the respiratory epithelium, scene of complex functional interactions between viral, bacterial, and human neuraminidases.
Review in Frontiers in microbiology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The activity of sialic acids, known to play critical roles in biology and many pathological processes, is finely regulated by a class of enzymes called sialidases, also known as neuraminidases. These are present in mammals and many other biological systems, such as viruses and bacteria. This review focuses on the very particular situation of co-infections of the respiratory epithelium, the scene of complex functional interactions between viral, bacterial, and human neuraminidases. This intrinsically multidisciplinary topic combining structural biology, biochemistry, physiology, and the study of host-pathogen interactions, opens up exciting research perspectives that could lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying virus-bacteria co-infections and their contribution to the aggravation of respiratory pathology, notably in the context of pre-existing pathological contexts. Strategies that mimic or inhibit the activity of the neuraminidases could constitute interesting treatment options for viral and bacterial infections.
