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 periplasmic alpha-carbonic anhydrase of Helicobacter pylori is essential for buffering the periplasm at acidic pH. This enzyme is an integral component of the acid acclimation response that allows this neutralophile to colonize the stomach. Transcription of the HP1186 alpha-carbonic anhydrase gene is upregulated in response to low environmental pH. A binding site for the HP0166 response regulator (ArsR) has been identified in the promoter region of the HP1186 gene. To investigate the mechanism that regulates the expression of HP1186 in response to low pH and the role of the HP0165-HP0166 two-component system (ArsRS) in this acid-inducible regulation, Northern blot analysis was performed with RNAs isolated from two different wild-type H. pylori strains (26695 and 43504) and mutants with HP0165 histidine kinase (ArsS) deletions, after exposure to either neutral pH or low pH (pH 4.5). ArsS-dependent upregulation of HP1186 alpha-carbonic anhydrase in response to low pH was found in both strains. Western blot analysis of H. pylori membrane proteins confirmed the regulatory role of ArsS in HP1186 expression in response to low pH. Analysis of the HP1186 promoter region revealed two possible transcription start points (TSP1 and TSP2) located 43 and 11 bp 5' of the ATG start codon, respectively, suggesting that there are two promoters transcribing the HP1186 gene. Quantitative primer extension analysis showed that the promoter from TSP1 (43 bp 5' of the ATG start codon) is a pH-dependent promoter and is regulated by ArsRS in combating environmental acidity, whereas the promoter from TSP2 may be responsible for control of the basal transcription of HP1186 alpha-carbonic anhydrase.
