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 Burkholderia xenovorans LB400 multireplicon genome displays a relatively high proportion of redundant genes, including several genes predicted to be related to arsenic resistance. These comprise an ars gene cluster, composed of the arsR3, acr3, arsC1 and arsH genes, as well as two arsB, arsC2, and seven individual arsR genes. The objective of this work was to elucidate the involvement of the ars gene cluster in arsenic resistance by the LB400 strain. Susceptibility tests showed that B. xenovorans LB400 is highly resistant to arsenate and arsenite. Arsenic resistance was induced by prior exposure of LB400 to arsenate or arsenite. reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction assays using total RNA from LB400 showed arsenite-induced transcription of the arsR3 gene, suggesting that the ars gene cluster constitutes an arsenite-responsive operon. Transfer of cloned LB400 ars genes to heterologous Escherichia coli or Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains demonstrated that the ArsR3 transcriptional repressor, ArsC1 arsenate reductase, and the Acr3 arsenite efflux pump encoded in the LB400 ars gene cluster, are all associated to the arsenic resistance phenotype of this strain. The ars gene cluster from Burkholderia xenovorans LB400 is responsible for the inducible arsenic-resistance phenotype of the bacterium.
