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

A linear plasmid pBSSB1 of z66-positive Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi was previously identified to be involved in unidirectional flagellar phase variation due to the expression and regulation of fljB(z66) and fljA located on it. However, the expression of the remaining genes and other possible functions of pBSSB1 have not been reported yet. Here, we investigated the transcriptional expression characteristics of six genes (002, 008, 012, 017, 021, and 026) located on the linear plasmid pBSSB1 in different growth phases and environmental stresses by means of qRT-PCR. The results show that these six genes are all transcribed in normal growth condition (LB broth at 37 °C with stirring 250 rpm), and their expression has an increasing trend in general with the growth of the bacteria. Under environmental stresses, there is an increase in expression levels of 002, 008, 012, and 026, while no significant change in expression was observed for 017 and 021. In addition, the expression levels and modes of 017 and 021 are similar in all the growth conditions. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing the transcriptional expression characteristics of these six genes located on pBSSB1 and suggesting that pBSSB1 may be very important in response to the environmental stresses in z66-positive S. enterica serovar Typhi.
