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

In this work we consider the regulation system present on the SPI1 pathogenicity island of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. It is well-known that HilA is the central regulator in the overall scheme of SPI1 regulation and directly binds to virulence operons and activates their expression. The regulation of the expression of HilA is via a complex feed-forward loop involving three transcriptional activators: HilC, HilD and RtsA, and the negative regulator HilE. Our aim is to model this regulation network and study its dynamical behavior. We show that this regulatory system can display a bistable behavior relevant to the biology of Salmonella, and that noise can be a driving force in this system.
