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 cell-free supernatant (CFS) from Lactobacillus paracasei NRRL B-50314 culture has been previously reported as containing antibacterial activity against a wide variety of Gram-positive bacteria. The CFS protein gel slice corresponding to antibacterial activities was subjected to trypsin digestion and ion trap MASS (Gel/LC-MS/MS) analysis. BlastP search of the resulted IQAVISIAEQQIGKP sequence led to a hypothetical cell-wall associated hydrolase (designated as CWH here) from Lactobacillus paracasei ATCC 25302. Further analyses of CWH revealed that the IQAVISIAEQQIGKP belongs to a highly conserved region of the NlpC/P60 superfamily. The L. paracasei NRRL B-50314 CWH gene, cloned in pStrepHIS1525CWH477, was introduced into Bacillus megaterium MS 941. The production of CWH477 protein was induced by xylose. The CWH477 protein was purified by using NiNTA column, and elution fraction E2 showed highest antibacterial activity. This study and bioinformatics analyses suggested that the antibacterial activity of CWH could originate from its cell wall degrading enzymatic function.
