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

The Streptococcus mutans Cid/Lrg system represents an ideal model to study how this organism withstands various stressors encountered in the oral cavity. Mutation of lrgAB renders S. mutans more sensitive to oxidative, heat, and vancomycin stresses. Here, we have performed a comprehensive proteomics experiment using label-free quantitative mass spectrometry to compare the proteome changes of wild type UA159 and lrgAB mutant strains in response to these same stresses. Importantly, many of identified proteins showed either a strikingly large fold-change, or were completely suppressed or newly induced in response to a particular stress condition. Notable stress proteome changes occurred in a variety of functional categories, including amino acid biosynthesis, energy metabolism, protein synthesis, transport/binding, and transcriptional/response regulators. In the non-stressed growth condition, mutation of lrgAB significantly altered the abundance of 76 proteins (a fold change >1.4, or <0.6, p-value <0.05) and several of these matched the stress proteome of the wild type strain. Interestingly, the statistical correlation between the proteome changes and corresponding RNA-seq transcriptomic studies was relatively low (rho(ρ) <0.16), suggesting that adaptation to a new environment may require radical proteome turnover or metabolic remodeling. Collectively, this study reinforces the importance of LrgAB to the S. mutans stress response.
