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

Rationale: Defects in epithelial host defense and dysfunctional neutrophilic inflammation in the presence of sustained bacterial infection underpin chronic lung disease in cystic fibrosis (CF). Deciphering mechanisms on how bacteria interact with the host to establish chronic infection is critical for disease control in people with CF (pwCF). Objective: We sought to investigate the co-existence of microbial and host extracellular vesicles (EVs) in CF airway fluids and evaluate if bacterial EVs from Methods: EVs from sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from pwCF ( Results: We observed the co-existence of bacterial and host EVs in airway fluid from pwCF. Functionally, exposure to EVs from wild-type Conclusion: This proof-of-concept study suggests host-bacterial interplay via EVs in CF airways.
