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

Autoinducer-2 (AI-2) is a universal signal molecule mediating intra- and interspecies communication among bacteria. AI-2 is a byproduct of the LuxS enzyme during the catabolism of S-adenosylhomocysteine and plays critical roles in regulating various behaviors of bacteria. In our previous study, the function of LuxS in AI-2 production was verified in Streptococcus suis (SS). Decreased levels of SS biofilm formation and host-cell adherence as well as the inability to produce AI-2 were observed in SS having a luxS mutant gene. In this study, exogenous addition of a low concentration of AI-2 synthesized in vitro was found to promote biofilm formation and host-cell adherence. However, higher concentrations of AI-2 inhibited SS biofilm formation and host-cell adherence. Real-time PCR results showed that the mRNA level of virulence factors of SS biofilm, gdh, cps2, sly, and mrp increased and ef, fbps, and gapdh decreased with increasing AI-2 concentrations. These findings demonstrated that AI-2 supplemented exogenously acted as a concentration-dependent signaling molecule to regulate SS biofilm formation, host-cell adherence, and transcription levels of many virulence genes.
