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

Kazachstania slooffiae is the dominating yeast in pig's gut. No methods others than cultivation were applied for enumeration of yeasts within this ecosystem. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop a real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay to quantitate total yeasts and K. slooffiae in the porcine gut. This work demonstrated that the copy numbers in gDNA can be determined by qPCR using PCR amplicons as a calibrator and one-point calibration method. The gDNA were then used as a calibrator for further analysis. The values of quantitation cycle and PCR amplification efficiency of gDNA calibrator were highly reproducible. DNA was extracted from feces and from 10 different cultured yeasts found in pigs' intestine. The qPCR results using primers NL1/LS2 encoding 26S rDNA correlated (r = 0.984, P < 0.0001) with cultivation results. From two primer sets developed, one set encoding act1 gene was suitable for quantitation of K. slooffiae. The copy numbers of K. slooffiae could be determined by 40% analyzed animals, amounting to about 70% of total yeasts. The application of this method in next studies will help to get more information about K. slooffiae and total yeasts in the gut of pigs.
