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

Soluble forms of recombinant LukE protein (expressed in Escherichia coli) and of wild-type LukD protein (expressed in Staphylococcus aureus), which together form the staphylococcal LukE-LukD leukotoxin, were purified to homogeneity and crystallized using the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method. The crystals of LukE belonged to space group I4, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 134.50, c = 64.43 Å, and diffracted X-rays to 1.6 Å resolution. The crystals of LukD belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 48.04, b = 50.99, c = 137.40 Å, and diffracted to 1.9 Å resolution. Molecular replacement using the LukF-PV structure (PDB entry 1pvl) as a template model allowed the identification of an initial structure solution for the LukD data. In the case of LukE, a solution comprising only a single copy of the search model (LukS-PV; PDB entry 1t5r) was found, although the unit-cell parameters indicated that up to three molecules could be accommodated in the asymmetric unit.
