Estradiol Modulates the Sensitivity to Vancomycin of

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
We investigated the effects of vancomycin, estradiol, ethanol, and their combinations on the growth of mono- and binary-species biofilms of Lactobacillus paracasei and Staphylococcus aureus. It was found that vancomycin at a subinhibitory concentration of 0.001 µg/mL, estradiol, and ethanol acted antagonistically in all cases. This effect was observed across all strains studied. Furthermore, the effects of the active compounds were evident at population, cellular and molecular levels, and were reflected in changes to the count of colony-forming units (CFUs), gene expression, and the physiological and biochemical characteristics of cells (e.g., lipid composition of membranes and the extracellular matrix). Therefore, at subinhibitory concentrations of vancomycin in the medium, estradiol can modulate the antibiotic's effect on biofilms, thereby regulating deeply microbial communities.
