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

Cell division in bacteria requires the construction of two new polar caps for the daughter cells. To constrict the cell membrane and build these new surface layers, bacteria employ a multiprotein machine called the divisome. Over the years, most of the essential division proteins have been identified and localized to the ring-like divisome apparatus. The challenge now is to determine the molecular function of these factors, how they cooperate to bring about the dramatic transformation of the mother cell envelope, and what coordinates their activity with other major cell cycle events. In this review, we discuss recent progress in these areas with an emphasis on results from the model organisms Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis.
