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 bacterial adenylate cyclase two-hybrid system (BACTH) is a genetic approach used to test protein interactions in vivo in E. coli. This system takes advantage of the two catalytic domains of Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase (CyaA) toxin, which can be fused separately to proteins of interest. If the proteins of interest interact, then the adenylate cyclase domains will be brought in close proximity to each other, reconstituting cyclic AMP (cAMP) production. Interacting proteins can be both qualitatively and quantitatively assessed by the expression of chromosomal genes of the E. coli lac or mal operon, which are positively regulated by cAMP production. Because cAMP is diffusible, the proteins of interest do not need to interact near the transcriptional machinery. Consequently, both cytosolic and membrane protein-protein interactions can be tested. The BACTH system has recently been modified to be compatible with Gateway
