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 Gifsy-1 phage integrates site specifically into the Salmonella chromosome via an integrase-mediated site-specific recombination mechanism. Initial genetic analysis suggests that Gifsy-1 integrase-mediated excision of the Gifsy-1 phage is influenced by proteins encoded by both the Gifsy-1 and the Gifsy-2 phages. Our studies show that the Gifsy-1 Xis protein regulates the directionality of integrase-mediated excision of the Gifsy-1 phage. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays, DNase I footprinting, dimethyl sulfate (DMS) interference assays, and DMS protection assays were used to identify a 31-base-pair sequence in the attP region to which the Gifsy-1 protein binds. The results suggest that this recombination directionality factor binds in vitro to three imperfect direct repeats, spaced 10 base pairs apart, in a sequential and cooperative manner in the absence of other phage-encoded proteins. Our studies suggest that, while the Gifsy-1 Xis does not require additional factors for specific and high-affinity binding, it may form a microfilament on DNA similar to that described for the phage lambda Xis protein.
