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

Gene fusion proteins with epitopes attached to the amino end of cholera toxin B subunit (CTB) are useful to raise immunological responses. We describe a cloning vector, designated pCTBtet, carrying a tetracycline resistance gene (TetR) between the leader peptide and mature CTB. Removal of TetR to insert oligonucleotides encoding fusion epitopes allowed for screening of tetracycline-sensitive clones. Restoration of the correct CTB reading phase was subsequently used to choose gene fusion candidate colonies. The use of pCTBtet permitted the rapid construction of 8 fusion proteins carrying 9-24 aa from Salmonella typhi OmpC and 6 hybrids with 7-31 aa from Escherichia coli colonization factor CFAI.
