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

Glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) formation in Staphylococcus aureus is catalysed by glucokinase (glkA) gene under high glucose concentration leading to upregulation of various pathogenic factors; therefore the present study is aimed in the cloning and characterization of glk A gene from S. aureus ATCC12600. The glk A gene was cloned in the Sma I site of pQE 30, sequenced (Accession number: JN645812) and expressed in E. coli DH5α. The recombinant glk A expressed from the resultant glk A 1 clone was purified using nickel metal chelate chromatography, the pure enzyme gave single band in SDS-PAGE with molecular weight of 33kDa. The rglk A showed very high affinity to glucose Km 5.1±0.06mM with Hill coefficient of 1.66±0.032mM. Analysis of glucokinase sequence of S. aureus showed presence of typical ATP binding site and ROK motif CNCGRSGCIE. Sequentially and phylogenetically S. aureus glk A exhibited low identity with other bacterial glk A and 21% homology with human glucokinase (GCK). Functionally, S. aureus glk A showed higher rate of G-6-P formation compared to human GCK which may have profound role in the pathogenesis.
