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 population structure of clinical Vibrio parahaemolyticus isolates spreading in China remains undefined. We brought 218 clinical isolates from the pubMLST database originating from different regions of China collected since the year of 1990, analyzed by multilocus sequence typing (MLST), to elucidate the prevalence and genetic diversity of V. parahaemolyticus circulating in Chinese population. The MLST scheme produced 137 sequence types (STs). These STs were clustered into six clonal complexes (CCs), six doublets, and 91 singletons, exhibiting a high level of genetic diversity. However, less diversity was displayed on the peptide level: only 46 different peptide sequence type (pST) were generated, with pST2 (44.0%, 96/218) and pST1 (15.1%, 33/218) the predominant. Further analysis confirmed all the pSTs belong to a single complex founded by pST1, pST2, pST3, and pST4. recA presented the highest degree of nucleotide diversity (0.026) and the largest number of variable sites (176) on the nucleotide level. pyrC was the most diverse locus on the peptide level, possessing the highest percentage of variable sites (9.2%, 15/163). Significant linkage disequilibrium with the alleles was detected when the Standardized Index of Association (I(S) A ) was calculated both for the entire isolates collection (0.7169, P < 0.01) and for the 137 STs (I(S) A = 0.2648, P < 0.01). In conclusion, we provide an overview of prevalence and genetic diversity of clinical V. parahaemolyticus spreading in Chinese population using MLST analysis. The results would offer genetic evidences for uncovering the microevolution relationship of V. parahaemolyticus populations.
