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

Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is a common mucosal disease, caused primarily by Candida albicans that affects up to 75% of women of childbearing age. The pathogenesis of VVC and recurrent VVC (RVVC) is largely understood after decades of research. In this regard, an immunopathological response involving the migration of neutrophils that become dysfunctional (anergic) in the vaginal environment leads to the symptomatic conditions. However, immunotherapeutic strategies to correct the immunopathogenesis are still elusive. Much of the mechanistic discoveries have been uncovered using the established mouse model of chronic VVC. This chapter details the methods widely used for the mouse model of experimental VVC and associated outcome measures of the immunopathologic response and resulting symptomatic condition and focuses further on assays used to demonstrate "neutrophil anergy" in the model. These methods may serve as a source or resource for further experimentation with the ultimate goal to reduce or eliminate VVC/RVVC.
