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

Salmonella Typhimurium definitive phage type (DT) 104 produces a pertussis-like toxin (ArtAB-DT104), which catalyzes ADP-ribosylation of pertussis toxin sensitive G proteins. However, the prevalence of ArtAB and its toxicity have not been established. We report here that, in addition to DT104, S. Worthington, and S. bongori, produce ArtAB homologs, designated ArtAB-SW and ArtAB-Sb, respectively. We purified and characterized these ArtAB toxins, which comprise a 27-kDa A subunit (ArtA) and 13.8-kDa pentameric B subunits (ArtB). While the sequence of the A subunit, which is ADP-ribosyltransferase, is similar to the A subunit sequences of other ArtABs, the B subunit of ArtAB-Sb is divergent compared to the B subunit sequences of other ArtABs. Intraperitoneal injection of purified ArtABs was fatal in mice; the 50% lethal doses of ArtAB-DT104 and ArtAB-SW were lower than that of ArtAB-Sb, suggesting that ArtB plays an influential role in the toxicity of ArtABs. ArtABs catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of G proteins in RAW 264.7 murine macrophage-like cells, and increased intracellular cyclic AMP levels. ArtAB-DT104 and ArtAB-SW, but not ArtAB-Sb, stimulated insulin secretion in mice; however, unlike Ptx, ArtABs did not induce leukocytosis. This disparity in biological activity may be explained by differences in ADP-ribosylation of target G proteins.
