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

This study involved 82 Salmonella enterica serovar Oranienburg isolates from patients with gastroenteritis and/or focal infections, healthy carriers, and cuttlefish chips which were epidemiologically linked to a major outbreak that had affected 1,505 people in Japan between 1998 and 1999. We concurrently investigated four different molecular subtyping methods using human salmonellosis-associated Salmonella serovars and their applicability in detection of serovar Oranienburg in an outbreak. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), enterobacterial repetitive intergenic sequence PCR (ERIC2-PCR), or 16S/23S rRNA ribotyping provided a high degree of interserovar discrimination for most of the serovars, with PFGE being the most discriminatory. For intraserovar typing of serovar Oranienburg, ERIC2-PCR was found to be the most sensitive. Native plasmid profiling, however, revealed nine different subgroups among epidemiologically and genetically related outbreak strains. Using these methods, a link was confirmed between food (cuttlefish chips) and patients in the serovar Oranienburg outbreak. This study underscores the limitations of chromosome-based and plasmid-based typing methods.
