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

Type III secretion systems (T3SSs) are complex units that consist of many proteins. Often the proteins are encoded as a cohesive unit on virulence plasmids, but several systems have their various components dispersed around the chromosome. The Yersinia enterocolitica Ysa T3SS is such a system, where the apparatus genes, some regulatory genes, and four genes encoding secreted proteins (ysp genes) are contained in a single locus. The remaining ysp genes and at least one additional regulator are found elsewhere on the chromosome. Expression of ysa genes requires conditions of high ionic strength, neutral/basic pH, and low temperatures (26 degrees C) and is stimulated by exposure to solid surfaces. The AraC-like regulator YsaE and the dual-function chaperone/regulator SycB are required to stimulate the sycB promoter, which transcribes sycB and probably yspBCDA as well. The putative phosphorelay proteins YsrRS (located at the distal end of the ysa locus) and RcsB, the response regulator of the RcsBCD phosphorelay system, are required to initiate transcription at the ysaE promoter, which drives transcription of many apparatus genes. In this work, we sought to determine which ysp genes were coordinately regulated with the genes within the ysa locus. We found that six unlinked ysp genes responded to NaCl and required YsaE/SycB, YsrRS, and RcsB for expression. Three ysp genes had unique patterns, one of which was unaffected by all elements tested except NaCl. Thus, while the ysp genes were likely to have been acquired independently, most have acquired a synchronous regulatory pattern.
