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 novel carbazole (CAR)-degrading bacterium Lysobacter sp. strain OC7 has been isolated from seawater and can also utilize naphthalene and phenanthrene as its sole carbon and energy source. The CAR-degradative gene cluster was isolated and encoded five complete open reading frames (ORFs) and two truncated ORFs. Among them, four ORFs showed 40-50% similarity with previously reported CAR-degradative genes. Ferredoxin (carAc) and ferredoxin reductase (carAd) genes, which are necessary for the CAR 1,9a-dioxygenase system, were not found in this car gene cluster. The car (OC7) gene transcripts were strongly detected when CAR was provided. However, these transcripts were also detected when naphthalene was provided. The resting cell reaction with Escherichia coli revealed that CarAa(OC7) can use CarAc and CarAd of Pseudomonas resinovorans CA10 as ferredoxin and ferredoxin reductase, respectively, and converted CAR to 2'-aminobiphenyl-2,3-diol. In 13 marine CAR-degrading isolates, only Caulobacter sp. strain OC6 hybridized with the car (OC7) gene cluster probe. This is the first report showing CAR-degradative genes from the genus Lysobacter.
