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

Recent efforts to develop a vaccine against the diarrheal disease cholera have focused on the use of live attenuated strains of the causative organism, Vibrio cholerae. The Ogawa lipopolysaccharide phenotype is expressed by many epidemic strains, and motility defects reduce the risk of reactive diarrhea in vaccine recipients. We therefore converted a motile Inaba(+) vaccine candidate, Peru-2, to a nonmotile Ogawa(+) phenotype using a mariner-based transposon carrying rfbT, the gene required for expression of the Ogawa phenotype. Analysis of 22 nonmotile Peru-2 mutants showed that two were Ogawa(+), and both of these strains had insertions in the flgE gene. It was possible to convert these strains to antibiotic sensitivity by introducing a recombinase that acts on sites flanking the antibiotic marker on the transposon. The resulting strains are competent for colonization in infant mice and may therefore be suitable as vaccine candidates for use either independently or in a combination with strains of different biotypes and serotypes.
