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

Yersinia type III machines secrete protein substrates across the bacterial envelope. Secretion signals of some substrates have been identified; however, the mechanisms whereby these signals interact with type III machines are not known. Here we show that fusion of YopR, an early secretion substrate, to the N terminus of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) or other tightly folded proteins generates impassable hybrids that cannot travel the type III pathway. YopR hybrids capture YscN, the ATPase that provides energy for type III transport reactions, in the bacterial cytoplasm. Eleven N-terminal residues function as the YopR secretion signal, which is required for both binding to YscN and blocking the type III pathway. When expressed during type III machine assembly, YopR-DHFR blocks all secretion. Delayed expression of YopR-DHFR, when yersiniae have already engaged the type III pathway, blocks secretion of early (YscP) but not of late (effector Yops) substrates. These observations support a model whereby type III machines are programmed to secrete a sequence of proteins that can be disrupted when an impassable early substrate interacts with the YscN ATPase and blocks the transport of late substrates.
