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

Protein export in Escherichia coli is mediated by translocase, a multisubunit membrane protein complex with SecA as the peripheral subunit and the SecY, SecE, and SecG proteins as the integral membrane domain. In the gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis, SecA, SecY, and SecE have been identified through genetic analysis. Sequence comparison of the Bacillus chromosome identified a potential homologue of SecG, termed YvaL. A chromosomal disruption of the yvaL gene results in mild cold sensitivity and causes a beta-lactamase secretion defect. The cold sensitivity is exacerbated by overexpression of the secretory protein alpha-amylase, whereas growth and beta-lactamase secretion are restored by coexpression of yvaL or the E. coli secG gene. These results indicate that the yvaL gene codes for a protein that is functionally homologous to SecG.
