Genetic and virulence characterization of Streptococcus suis type 2 isolates from swine in the provinces of Zhejiang and Henan, China.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
This study was aimed to examine the genetic characteristics of 44 Streptococcus suis type 2 (SS2) isolates and the virulence attributes of 23 representative isolates. Multilocus sequence typing revealed five sequence types (ST1, ST7, ST28, ST86, and ST162) with 19 isolates assigned to ST7 (43.2%), 14 to ST1 (31.8%), and 9 to ST28 (20.5%). PCR typing of the pilus gene clusters classified the isolates into three types: A (72.7%), B (22.7%), and N (4.5%). All isolates of pilus types A and N were assigned to the ST1 complex containing ST1, ST7, and ST86, while those of type B belonged to the ST27 complex comprising ST28 and ST162. Only two strains had the putative pathogenicity island 89-kb cluster (89K) and were of type N. The type B strains had a significantly lower adhesion, were more readily killed by macrophage, and had lower virulence to mice than those of types A and N. We conclude that SS2 strains of both ST1 and ST27 complexes, parallel to pilus types A and B, were prevalent in the pig populations in Zhejiang Province, and ST7 and ST1 strains were the predominant genotypes in the diseased pigs with pneumonia.
