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

Recently, subtilase cytotoxin (SubAB) was detected in verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) that do not carry the Locus of Enterocyte Effacement (LEE) pathogenicity island. The distribution of the subA gene in VTEC isolated from patients with the hemolytic uremic syndrome, patients with diarrheal disease and raw meats from ruminants and wildlife in Belgium was investigated with PCR. The subA gene was detected more frequently (χ (2) = 10.2; d.f. = 1; P = 0.001) in VTEC from raw meats (10 of 87 strains) than in those from humans (8 of 274 strains), and never in serogroups O157, O26, O103, O111 and O145. This virulence marker could play a role in the development of HUS after infection with LEE-negative VTEC but was only found in one O178:H19 isolate out of 36 HUS-associated VTEC strains.
