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 complete nucleotide sequence of a tetracycline-resistance gene (tetK)-carrying plasmid from a Staphylococcus saprophyticus isolate from jeotgal, a Korean high-salt-fermented seafood, was determined. The plasmid, designated pSSTET1, was 4439 bp in length and encoded typical elements found in plasmids that replicate via a rolling-circle mechanism, including the replication protein gene (rep), a double-stranded origin of replication, a single-stranded origin of replication, and a counter-transcribed RNA sequence. Additionally, the plasmid recombination enzyme gene (pre), which may be involved in inter-plasmid recombination and conjugation, was found. Each gene exhibited >94% sequence identity with those harbored in other Staphylococcus species. pSSTET1 was conditionally transferred to Staphylococcus species in a host-dependent manner and transferred to an Enterococcus faecalis strain in vitro. Antibiotic susceptibility of the transconjugants was host-dependent and transconjugants maintained a tetracycline-resistant phenotype in the absence of selective pressure over 100 generations.
