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

Nine Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157:H7/H- (O157) strains were serially cultured three times on LB agar plates. After each sub-culture, five colonies were picked for DNA isolation and whole genome sequence (WGS) analysis. After exclusion of possible recombination-related SNPs, 11, 9, and 34 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected in genes in the backbone, O-island, and mobile elements gene categories. This suggested that those SNPs due to cultivation could influence the threshold value set for molecular epidemiological studies of O157. Significant differences were observed by the Kruskal-Wallis test (P < 0.01) when the number of the SNPs in a strain was compared to that in other strains. This indicated that a specific number of strains could be used for setting the threshold value in molecular epidemiological studies. Due to cultivation, the SNPs were also detected in genes in a few core genome or core gene sets, suggesting that those SNPs could affect studies of phylogeny as well as molecular epidemiology. To improve the accuracy of phylogenetic and molecular epidemiological studies, genes in which the SNPs have arisen due to cultivation should be excluded from WGS data.
