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

Bacillus circulans Jordan 32352 was isolated from decaying organic matter in the New Jersey soil in the early 1930s. This soil-dwelling bacterium produced an enzyme capable of degrading the type 3 capsular polysaccharide (Pn3P) of Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn). Early reports of this enzyme, Pn3Pase, demonstrated its inducibility by, and specificity for Pn3P. We set out to identify and clone this enzyme for its recombinant expression and characterization. We first sequenced the genome of this bacterial species, and reclassified the Pn3Pase producing bacterium as Paenibacillus species 32352. We identified the putative protein of Pn3Pase through mass spectrometry-based proteomics and cloned the gene for recombinant expression. We then characterized the oligosaccharide products generated upon the enzymatic depolymerization of Pn3P. Sequence analysis suggests that this glycoside hydrolase belongs to a new carbohydrate-active enzyme GH family. To our knowledge, this is the only enzyme to demonstrate Pn3P depolymerization activity.
