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 marine isolate Bacillus pumilus SBUG 1800 is able to lyse living cells of Arthrobacter citreus on solid media as well as pasteurized A. citreus cells in liquid mineral salt medium. The cultivation of B. pumilus in the presence of pasteurized A. citreus is accompanied by an enhanced production of 2,5-diketopiperazines (DKPs). DKPs inhibit bacterial growth, but do not seem to cause bacteriolysis. This study shows that B. pumilus also lyses living cells of A. citreus in co-culture experiments as an intraguild predator, even if the inoculum of B. pumilus is low. In order to characterize the bacteriolytic process, more precisely changes in the extracellular metabolome and proteome have been analyzed under different culture conditions. Besides the known DKPs, a number of different pumilacidins and bacteriolytic enzymes are produced. Two lipopeptides with [M + H](+) = 1008 and [M + H](+) = 1022 were detected and are proposed to be pumilacidin H and I. While the lipopeptides lyse living bacterial cells in lysis test assays, a set of extracellular enzymes degrades the dead cell material. Two of the cell wall hydrolases involved have been identified as N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase and beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase. These findings together with electron microscopic and cell growth monitoring during co-culture experiments give a detailed view on the bacteriolytic process.
