Utility of multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis as a molecular tool for phylogenetic analysis of Shigella sonnei.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 papers.
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.
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
A panel of 916 isolates, including 703 closely related IST1 isolates, were characterized by inter-IS1 spacer typing (IST), pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat (VNTR) analysis (MLVA) to evaluate the utility of MLVA as a molecular tool for the phylogenetic analysis of Shigella sonnei. The global phylogenetic patterns determined by IST, PFGE, and MLVA were concordant. MLVA was carried out using 26 VNTR loci with a range of degrees of variability. MLVA data for the 703 IST1 isolates revealed that diversification among the closely related isolates was attributed mainly to four highly variable loci. The phylogenetic pattern for the closely related isolates determined using MLVA profiles of 8 highly variable loci was in agreement with that determined using the 26-locus profiles. A clustering analysis using the profiles of 18 loci with limited variability established clear phylogenetic relationships among IST clonal groups. Accordingly, MLVA is a useful tool for the phylogenetic analysis of S. sonnei. Combined VNTR loci with higher variability are useful markers for resolving closely related isolates, whereas combined loci with lower variability are suitable for establishing clear phylogenetic relationships between strains or clones that have evolved over a longer timescale.
