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

Flagellar assembly requires the expression of a large number of flagellum-specific genes. However, mutations in a number of other genes in Salmonella and Escherichia coli have been shown to have pleiotropic effects that affect flagellar assembly. FlgH (the L-ring subunit of the flagellar basal body) is a lipoprotein whose modification is important for L-ring assembly. We therefore tested whether the lack of motility of Salmonella mutants defective in lipoprotein biogenesis is a result of inability to modify FlgH. Our results show that temperature-sensitive apolipoprotein N-acyltransferase [lnt(Ts)] mutants are nonflagellate at 42 degrees C. However, the flagellar assembly defect occurs at a much earlier step in the pathway than L-ring assembly. These mutants failed to assemble even an MS ring, presumably because of the observed decrease in transcription of fliF. In contrast, temperature-sensitive diacylglycerol transferase [lgt(Ts)] mutants were motile at 42 degrees C, provided the strains carried an lpp (Braun lipoprotein) mutation to permit growth. We have isolated second-site mutants from an lgt(Ts) lpp(+) strain that grow but are nonflagellate at 42 degrees C. Thus, lipoprotein biogenesis is a factor that is important for flagellar assembly.
