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

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is a standard typing method for isolates from Salmonella outbreaks and epidemiological investigations. Eight hundred sixty-six Salmonella enterica isolates from eight serotypes, including Heidelberg (n = 323), Javiana (n = 200), Typhimurium (n = 163), Newport (n = 93), Enteritidis (n = 45), Dublin (n = 25), Pullorum (n = 9), and Choleraesuis (n = 8), were subjected to PFGE, and their profiles were analyzed by random forest classification and compared to conventional hierarchical cluster analysis to determine potential predictive relationships between PFGE banding patterns and particular serotypes. Cluster analysis displayed only the underlying similarities and relationships of the isolates from the eight serotypes. However, for serotype prediction of a nonserotyped Salmonella isolate from its PFGE pattern, random forest classification provided better accuracy than conventional cluster analysis. Discriminatory DNA band class markers were identified for distinguishing Salmonella serotype Heidelberg, Javiana, Typhimurium, and Newport isolates.
