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

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a common cause of travelers' and postweaning diarrhea in humans and swine, respectively. The extent to which ETEC damages host cells is unclear. Experiments are presented that probe the ability of porcine ETEC isolates to induce apoptosis and cell death in porcine intestinal epithelial cells. Quantification of host phosphatidylserine exposure following ETEC infection suggested that ETEC induced changes in plasma membrane asymmetry, independent of the expression of the heat-labile enterotoxin. Significant host cell death was not observed. ETEC infection also caused a drastic inhibition of host esterase activity, as measured by calcein fluorescence. While ETEC infection resulted in activation of host caspase 3, terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling of DNA double-strand breakage, indicative of late stages of apoptosis, was not observed. Camptothecin-induced apoptosis markedly increased subsequent ETEC adherence. Transfer of cell-free supernatants from apoptotic cells to bacterial inocula prior to infection of naïve cells increased the transcriptional activity of the regulatory region upstream of the K88ac operon and promoted subsequent adherence to host cells.
