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 sigma factor RpoS is known to regulate at least 60 genes in response to environmental sources of stress or during growth to stationary phase (SP). Accumulation of RpoS relies on integration of multiple genetic controls, including regulation at the levels of transcription, translation, protein stability, and protein activity. Growth to SP in rich medium results in a 30-fold induction of RpoS, although the mechanism of this regulation is not understood. We characterized the activity of promoters serving rpoS in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and report that regulation of transcription during growth into SP depends on Fis, a DNA-binding protein whose abundance is high during exponential growth and very low in SP. A fis mutant of S. enterica serovar Typhimurium showed a ninefold increase in expression from the major rpoS promoter (PrpoS) during exponential growth, whereas expression during SP was unaffected. Increased transcription from PrpoS in the absence of Fis eliminated the transcriptional induction as cells enter SP. The mutant phenotype can be complemented by wild-type fis carried on a single-copy plasmid. Fis regulation of rpoS requires the presence of a Fis site positioned at -50 with respect to PrpoS, and this site is bound by Fis in vitro. A model is presented in which Fis binding to this site allows repression of rpoS specifically during exponential growth, thus mediating transcriptional regulation of rpoS.
