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

The proteins that form the bacterial flagellum are translocated to its distal end through the central channel of the growing flagellum by the flagellar-specific protein export apparatus, a family of the type III protein secretion system. FliI and FliJ are soluble components of this apparatus. FliI is an ATPase that has extensive structural similarity to the α and β subunits of F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase. FliJ is essential for export, but its function remains obscure. Here we show that the structure of FliJ derived from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is remarkably similar to that of the two-stranded α-helical coiled-coil part of the γ subunit of F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase and that FliJ promotes the formation of FliI hexamer rings by binding to the center of the ring. These results suggest that the type III protein export system and F- and V-type ATPases share a similar mechanism and an evolutionary relationship.
