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

The general stress response in Neisseria gonorrhoeae was investigated. Transcriptional analyses of the genes encoding the molecular chaperones DnaK, DnaJ, and GrpE suggested that they are transcribed from sigma32 (RpoH)-dependent promoters upon exposure to stress. This was confirmed by mutational analysis of the sigma32 promoter of dnaK. The gene encoding the gonococcal RpoH sigma factor appears to be essential, as we could not isolate viable mutants. Deletion of an unusually long rpoH leader sequence resulted in elevated levels of transcription, suggesting that this region is involved in negative regulation of RpoH expression during normal growth. Transcriptional analyses and protein studies determined that regulation of the RpoH-mediated stress response is different from that observed in most other species, in which regulation occurs predominantly at the transcriptional and translational levels. We suggest that an increase in the activity of preformed RpoH is primarily responsible for induction of the stress response in N. gonorrhoeae.
