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

yeh fimbrial gene cluster encodes a type of putative fimbrial complex belonging to chaperone-usher assembly pathway. Recent studies have shown that yeh fimbrial gene cluster is present in 94 % of Escherichia coli isolates and responsible for adhesion to some abiotic surfaces. Our preliminary comparative genomic analysis of 96 complete genomes of different E. coli strains revealed that the major region of this gene cluster is unique to E. coli O157:H7 strains. To investigate the detail of the analysis, we BLAST the sequence of this gene cluster against the existing complete and draft genome sequences of different E. coli strains and other genera belonging to Enterobacteriaceae family in NCBI database. The results showed that this gene cluster is properly unique to E. coli O157:H7 strains and could be used as a stable and specific genetic signature for the identification of this serotype. In this respect, we also experimentally validated the specificity of this gene cluster for the identification of E. coli O157:H7 strains by loop-mediated isothermal amplification method.
