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

Numerous Gram-negative pathogens rely upon type III secretion (T3S) systems to cause disease. Several small-molecule inhibitors of the type III secretion systems have been identified; however, few targets of these inhibitors have been elucidated. Here we report that 2,2'-thiobis-(4-methylphenol) (compound D), inhibits type III secretion in Yersinia pestis, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. YopD, a protein involved in the formation of the translocon and regulatory processes of the type III secretion system, appears to play a role in the inhibition of secretion by compound D. The use of compound D in T3S regulatory mutants demonstrated a difference in secretion inhibition in the presence and absence of calcium. Interestingly, compound D was effective only under conditions without calcium, indicating that a secretion-active needle structure may be necessary for compound D to inhibit secretion.
