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

In certain species of fish, such as rainbow trout, infection by the Firmicutes Lactococcus garvieae is problematic. This organism is the causative agent of lactococcosis disease in fish, and it is also considered a potential zoonotic bacterium, since it can cause several opportunistic infections in humans. In this study, L. garvieae strain TRF1 was grown and isolated in pure culture from the fecal material of a Timber Rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus), living in the wild. The presence/absence of several putative virulence factors was identified using staining, PCR amplification, and the construction of a draft genome. Strain TRF1 shared several putative virulence factors with strain Lg2, a known fish pathogen. However, the capsule gene cluster, found in strain Lg2, was not found in strain TRF1. Since this gene cluster is absent in several non-pathogenic strains of L. garvieae, it suggests strain TRF1 may not be pathogenic. However, this hypothesis will have to be tested in an animal model.
