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

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) between bacteria with different habitats and nutritional requirements is important for the spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARG). The objective of the present study was to clarify the effects of organic matter on HGT between nourished and starved bacteria. We demonstrated that conjugation ability is affected by the nutritional conditions of the cell and environment. A filter mating HGT experiment was performed using Photobacterium damselae ssp. damselae, strain 04Ya311, a marine-origin bacterium possessing the multidrug-resistance plasmid pAQU1, as the donor, and Escherichia coli as the recipient. The donor and recipient were both prepared as nutrient-rich cultured and starved cells. Filter mating was performed on agar plates with and without organic nutrients. The transcription of the plasmid-borne genes tet(M) and traI was quantitated under eutrophic and oligotrophic conditions. The donor P. damselae transferred the plasmid to E. coli at a transfer rate of 10
