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

Environmental waters are an important reservoir for Vibrio cholerae, and effective surveillance of the pathogen can help to warn of and prevent infection with this potentially fatal pathogen. An immunofluorescent-aggregation (IFAG) assay to detect V. cholerae O1 and O139 was established and evaluated with estuarine water samples. The practical application of this assay was compared with the conventional culture method and real-time PCR. The IFAG method had a sensitivity of 10(3) CFU/ml for detection of V. cholerae O1 and O139 strains in a suspension containing 10 different species of enterobacterial strains (total, 10(5) CFU/ml). Ten fluorescent bacterial aggregate colonies were randomly picked and tested positive in serum agglutination tests for the V. cholerae O1 and O139 strains, showing a high specificity. The enrichment broths of 146 samples of estuarine water were tested, and the percentage positive by the IFAG assay was 19.9% (29/146), which was significantly higher than that of the conventional culture method (10.3%, 15/146; P < 0.01) but lower than that of real-time PCR (29.5%, 43/146; P < 0.01). The coincidence rates of real-time PCR and IFAG detection were decreased with the reduction of the V. cholerae concentration. The IFAG method, with a high specificity and a relatively high sensitivity, may be used for detection and isolation of V. cholerae in environmental water samples.
