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

Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is an organic sulfur compound that occurs in large amounts in oceans around the world, and it plays an important role in the global sulfur cycle. DMSP released into seawater can be rapidly catabolized by bacteria via two pathways, namely, demethylation or cleavage pathway. Members of the Roseobacter clade frequently possess enzymes involved in the DMSP demethylation or cleavage pathway. We tried to measure the diversity of genes encoding DMSP demethylase (dmdA) and DMSP lyases (dddD, dddL, and dddP) in bacteria in the surface seawater of Ardley Cove and Great Wall Cove in Antarctic Maxwell Bay using DMSP degradation gene clone library analysis. Although we did not detect sequences related to the dddD or dddL gene, both bacterial dmdA and dddP genes found in the two coves were completely confined to the Roseobacter clade, which indicated that this clade plays a significant role in DMSP catabolism in the coastal seawaters of Maxwell Bay. In addition, compared with bacterial DMSP degradation genes in Arctic coastal seawater, our results suggest that both bipolar and endemic bacterial DMSP degradation genes exist in polar marine environments. The findings of this study improve our knowledge of the distribution of DMSP degradation genes in polar marine ecosystems.
