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

SteA is a protein that can be translocated into host cells through the two virulence-related type III secretion systems that are present in Salmonella enterica. We used the T-POP system to carry out general screens for loci that exhibited activation or repression of a steA::lacZ fusion. These screens identified the histidine kinase PhoQ and the response regulator PhoP as positive regulators of steA. Transcription of this gene is σ70 dependent, and the promoter of steA contains a PhoP-binding site that mediates direct regulation by PhoP. Our screens also detected MgrB (also known as YobG) as a negative regulator of the expression of steA. Disruption of the gene encoding the periplasmic disulfide oxidoreductase DsbA or addition of the reducing agent dithiothreitol increases transcription of steA. The effects of MgrB and DsbA on steA are mediated by PhoP. These results suggest that the cellular redox status is a factor contributing to regulation of steA and, probably, other virulence genes regulated by the PhoQ/PhoP two-component system.
