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

An enzyme superfamily, the lytic transglycosylases (LTs), occupies the space between the two membranes of Gram-negative bacteria. LTs catalyze the non-hydrolytic cleavage of the bacterial peptidoglycan cell-wall polymer. This reaction is central to the growth of the cell wall, for excavating the cell wall for protein insertion, and for monitoring the cell wall so as to initiate resistance responses to cell-wall-acting antibiotics. The nefarious Gram-negative pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa encodes eleven LTs. With few exceptions, their substrates and functions are unknown. Each P. aeruginosa LT was expressed as a soluble protein and evaluated with a panel of substrates (both simple and complex mimetics of their natural substrates). Thirty-one distinct products distinguish these LTs with respect to substrate recognition, catalytic activity, and relative exolytic or endolytic ability. These properties are foundational to an understanding of the LTs as catalysts and as antibiotic targets.
