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

The AcrAB-TolC multidrug efflux pump confers resistance to Escherichia coli against many antibiotics and toxic compounds. The TolC protein is an outer membrane factor that participates in the formation of type I secretion systems. The genome of Vibrio vulnificus encodes two proteins homologous to the E. coli TolC, designated TolCV1 and TolCV2. Here, we show that both TolCV1 and TolCV2 partially complement the E. coli TolC function and physically interact with the membrane fusion protein AcrA, a component of the E. coli AcrAB-TolC efflux pump. Using site-directed mutational analyses and an in vivo cross-linking assay, we demonstrated that the α-barrel tip region of TolC homologs plays a critical role in the formation of functional AcrAB-TolC efflux pumps. Our findings suggest the adapter bridging model as a general assembly mechanism for tripartite drug efflux pumps in Gram-negative bacteria.
