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

Bacterial genome sequencing projects routinely uncover gene clusters that are predicted to encode the biosynthesis of uncharacterized small molecules. A subset of these cryptic genetic elements appears as individual operons. Here we investigate potential single-operon biosynthetic systems found in the genome of the pathogenic bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei . Placing these operons under the control of an inducible promoter led to the production of seven new metabolites. Among the molecules we identified are inhibitors of type-4 phosphodiesterases, suggesting that previously cryptic biosynthetic operons may encode metabolites that could contribute to microbial virulence by disrupting host signaling pathways.
