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

BALB/c mice were immunized with broken, heat-killed cells of Pediococcus acidilactici H. After murine cell fusions, one monoclonal antibody (MAb), Ped-2B2, was selected on the basis of its positive reaction with seven of seven strains tested in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with whole cells of P. acidilactici. The MAb Ped-2B2 did not show any cross-reactions with other lactic-acid bacteria or other gram-positive or gram-negative organisms. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Western blot (immunoblot) analysis of surface proteins of P. acidilactici indicated that Ped-2B2 reacted with a protein of 116 kDa. MAb Ped-2B2 was used as a probe to isolate Pediococcus species from fermented-meat products by colony immunoblotting. A total of 18 Ped-2B2-reactive Pediococcus spp. isolates were isolated from eight food samples and assayed for bacteriocin production. All of the isolates produced bacteriocins which were heat stable, proteinaceous, and inhibitory to Lactobacillus plantarum NCDO 955. Biochemical characterization of these isolates indicated that they were all P. acidilactici.
