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

Screening for the Escherichia coli O serotype is the traditional test for identification of E. coli clones. The O-antigen gene cluster of the E. coli O114 type strain was sequenced, and 12 open reading frames were assigned functions on the basis of homology. By screening against all 186 E. coli and Shigella O serotypes, five genes specific to E. coli O114 were identified. A PCR assay based on the O-antigen-specific genes was developed and tested on 41 clinical isolates of E. coli O114. The PCR assay was shown to be highly specific and sensitive. When tested with pork and water samples, as few as 0.12 CFU of E. coli O114 g(-1) were detected. Thus, the PCR assays established in this study can be used to reliably identify E. coli O114 strains and may also be used to detect E. coli O114 strains in food, water, and other environmental samples.
