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

Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the aetiologic agent of human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA) is an obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacterium with the genome size of 1.47 megabases. The intracellular life style and small size of genome suggest that A. phagocytophilum has to modulate a multitude of host cell physiological processes to facilitate its replication. One strategy employed by A. phagocytophilum is through its type IV secretion system (T4SS), which translocates bacterial effectors into target cells to disrupt normal cellular activities. In this study we developed a TEM-1 β-lactamase based protein translocation assay and applied this assay for identification of A. phagocytophilum T4SS effectors. An A. phagocytophilum hypothetical protein, APH0215 is identified as a T4SS effector protein and found interacting with trans-Golgi network in transfected cells. Hereby, this protein translocation assay developed in this study will facilitate the identification of A. phagocytophilum T4SS effectors and elucidation of HGA pathogenesis.
