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

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) has been used as an epidemiological tool for surveillance studies of Bordetella pertussis since the early 1990s. To date there is no standardized procedure for comparison of results, and therefore it has been difficult to directly compare PFGE results between laboratories. We propose a profile-based reference system for PFGE characterization of B. pertussis strain variation and to establish traceability of B. pertussis PFGE results. We initially suggest 35 Swedish reference strains as reference material for PFGE traceability. This reference material is deposited at the Culture Collection of the University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden. Altogether, 1,810 Swedish clinical isolates from between 1970 and 2003 were studied, together with the Swedish Pw vaccine strain, six reference strains, and two U.S. isolates. Our system provides evidence that profiles obtained by using only one enzyme, i.e., XbaI, give enough data to analyze the epidemiological relationship between them. Characterization with one enzyme is far less labor intensive, yielding results in half the time than when a two-enzyme procedure is used. Also, we can see that there is a correlation between PFGE profile and pertactin type. One common PFGE profile, BpSR11 (n = 455), showed 100% prn2 and 100% Fim3 when analyzed for pertactin type and serotype. On the other hand, strains with the same profile may express various serotypes when isolated over longer periods of time. Subculturing of the same isolate eight times or lyophilization caused no change in PFGE profile.
