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

Transgenic plants have been used as a safe and economic expression system for the production of edible vaccines. A synthetic cholera toxin B subunit gene (CTB) was fused with a synthetic neutralizing epitope gene of the porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (sCTB-sCOE), and the sCTB-sCOE fusion gene was introduced into a plant expression vector under the control of the ubiquitin promoter. This plant expression vector was transformed into lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) using the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method. Stable integration and transcriptional expression of the sCTB-sCOE fusion gene was confirmed using genomic DNA PCR analysis and northern blot analysis, respectively. The results of western blot analysis with anti-cholera toxin and anti-COE antibody showed the synthesis and assembly of CTB-COE fusion protein into oligomeric structures with pentameric sizing. The biological activity of CTB-COE fusion protein to its receptor, G(M1)-ganglioside, in transgenic plants was confirmed via G(M1)-ELISA with anti-cholera toxin and anti-COE antibody. Based on G(M1)-ELISA, the expression level of CTB-COE fusion proteins reached 0.0065% of the total soluble protein in transgenic lettuce leaf tissues. Transgenic lettuce successfully expressing CTB-COE fusion protein will be tested to induce efficient immune responses against porcine epidemic diarrhea virus infection by administration with raw material.
