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

Biofilm formation can make significant effects on bacteria habits and biological functions. In this study, diketopiperazines (DKPs) produced by strain of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens Q-426 was found to inhibit biofilm formed in the gas-liquid interface. Four kinds of DKPs were extracted from B. amyloliquefaciens Q-426, and we found that 0.04 mg ml(-1) DKPs could obviously inhibit the biofilm formation of the strain. DKPs produced by B. amyloliquefaciens Q-426 made a reduction on extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) components, polysaccharides, proteins, DNAs, etc. Real-time PCR was performed to determine that whether DKPs could make an obvious effect on the expression level for genes related to biofilm formation in the strain. The relative expression level of genes tasA, epsH, epsG and remB which related to proteins, extracellular matrix, and polysaccharides, were downregulated with 0.04 mg ml(-1) DKPs, while the expression level of nuclease gene nuc was significantly upregulated. The quantitative results of the mRNA expression level for these genes concerted with the quantitative results on EPS levels. All of the experimental results ultimately indicated that DKPs could inhibit the biofilm formation of the strain B. amyloliquefaciens Q-426.
