Characteristics of Mycoplasma hominis adhesion.
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 1993. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Mycoplasma hominis, a human pathogen, has previously been observed to bind to sulfatide separated on thin-layer chromatograms. It has not been demonstrated, however, that the binding is not simply a nonspecific ionic interaction. The ability of a low-passage patient isolate of M. hominis to adhere to glycoconjugates other than sulfatide and the characteristics of its binding to sulfatide were studied. Mycoplasmas were found to bind strongly and specifically in a temperature- and dose-dependent manner to only sulfatide of all of the glycolipids and glycoproteins tested. The avidity and specificity of binding, as well as the ability to inhibit the interaction specifically, suggest that the receptors to which M. hominis binds, particularly in the human urogenital tract, from which it is frequently isolated, are primarily, if not solely, sulfated glycolipids.
