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

Entry exclusion has been described in many bacterial conjugation systems, but their molecular mechanisms are not well understood. In the current issue, Avello et al. describe a new exclusion system in the conjugative element ICEBs1. They identify the yddJ gene as the functional exclusion gene and its target as the protein product of the conG gene. They provide evidence for a possible mechanism and for the contribution of the system to reduce fitness costs of ICE expression.
