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

Bacteriophage Mx9 is a temperate phage that infects Myxococcus xanthus. It lysogenizes the bacteria by integrating into the bacterial chromosome by site-specific recombination at one of two sites, attB1 or attB2. Integration at attB1 results in deletion of DNA between the two attB sites. The attB2 site lies within the 5' region of the M. xanthus tRNA(Gly) gene. Mx9 integration requires a single protein, Int. Analysis of integration revealed that the phage attachment site (attP) is contained in the int gene and that upon integration, the 3' end of the int gene is altered. Plasmids containing fusions of the pilA or mgl promoter to lacZ integrated at either Mx9 attB site have higher levels of transcription than the same fusions integrated at the Mx8 attB site.
