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

In the study described here, we successfully developed a transformation system for halo(alkali)philic members of the Archaea. This transformation system comprises a series of Natrialba magadii/Escherichia coli shuttle vectors based on a modified method to transform halophilic members of the Archaea and genomic elements of the N. magadii virus Ch1. The shuttle vector pRo-5, based on the repH-containing region of Ch1, stably replicated in E. coli and N. magadii and in several halophilic and haloalkaliphilic members of the Archaea not transformable so far. The Ch1 operon ORF53/ORF54 (repH) was essential for pRo-5 replication and was thus identified as the minimal replication origin. The plasmid allowed homologous and heterologous gene expression, as exemplified by the expression of Ch1 ORF3452, which encodes a structural protein, and the reporter gene bgaH of Haloferax lucentense in N. magadii. The new transformation/vector system will facilitate genetic studies within N. magadii and other haloalkaliphilic archaea and will allow the detailed characterization of the gene functions of N. magadii virus Ch1 in their extreme environments.
