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

Pseudomonas lipase is a well-studied lipase. However, few studies have been conducted to examine the mechanisms underlying the regulation of the lipase expression. Hfq is a global regulatory protein that, among others, controls the expression of multiple genes, regulate bacterial peristalsis, and participates in the regulation of quorum-sensing (QS) system. In this study, the effects of Hfq on lipase expression were investigated by knocking out the hfq and rsmY genes or overexpressing of hfq and rsmY genes. We found that Hfq regulates the expression of lipA at both transcriptional and translational levels. The translational level was the main regulatory level of lipA. Hfq also regulates the expression and stability of rsmY. Additionally, using hfq/rsmY double gene knock-out, we showed that Hfq can directly bind to the rsmY to regulate lipA activity. In conclusion, our results indicate that Hfq regulates the expression of rsmY mainly at the translational level to influence the expression of lipA in Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5.
