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

IscR is a global transcriptional regulator that contributes to the pathogenesis of Vibrio vulnificus, a food-borne pathogen. In the present study, the regulatory mechanism for the iscR expression of V. vulnificus was evaluated. The expression of iscR was found to be upregulated by a transcriptional regulator AphA, a homologue of the low cell density regulator AphA of the Vibrio species, in the exponential phase of growth. The promoter activity of iscR appeared to be activated and repressed by AphA and IscR, respectively. EMSA and DNase I protection assay showed that both AphA and IscR bind to the iscR regulatory region and the binding site for AphA overlapped with part of the binding site for IscR. Further mutational analysis suggested that AphA upregulates the iscR expression only in the presence of functional IscR. An examination of the roles of AphA and the binding sites revealed that the binding of AphA would hinder the IscR-mediated repression of the iscR transcription. The combined results show that V. vulnificus AphA upregulates iscR expression by antagonizing its negative autoregulation.
