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

Vibrio harveyi, pathogenic to fish, harbor a hemolysin gene vhh, the homologues of which are found in many species of the Genus Vibrio. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of vhh gene among V. harveyi isolated from Penaeus monodon hatcheries in India by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The vhh was detected in 67 of the 70 V. harveyi isolates tested in this study using different combinations of PCR primers. A variant vhh gene detected in a minority of strains was cloned, sequenced, and the recombinant protein was expressed in Escherichia coli. The deduced amino acid sequence of the cloned gene was 86% similar to the previously reported amino acid sequences of VHH. The results of this study suggest that though V. harveyi strains invariably harbor vhh, the sequence variants of the hemolysin gene exist that may impede their detection by PCR.
