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

'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' is a fastidious bacterium and a putative agent of citrus greening disease (a.k.a., huanglongbing, HLB), a significant agricultural disease that affects citrus fruit quality and tree health. In citrus, 'Ca. L. asiaticus' is phloem limited. Lack of culture tools to study 'Ca. L. asiaticus' complicates analysis of this important organism. To improve understanding of 'Ca. L. asiaticus'-host interactions including parameters that affect 'Ca. L. asiaticus' replication, methods suitable for screening pathogen responses to physicochemical and nutritional variables are needed. We describe a leaf disc-based culture assay that allows highly selective measurement of changes in 'Ca. L. asiaticus' DNA within plant tissue incubated under specific physicochemical and nutritional conditions. qPCR analysis targeting the hypothetical gene CD16-00155 (strain A4) allowed selective quantification of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' DNA content within infected tissue. 'Ca. L. asiaticus' DNA replication was observed in response to glucose exclusively under microaerobic conditions, and the antibiotic amikacin further enhanced 'Ca. L. asiaticus' DNA replication. Metabolite profiling revealed a moderate impact of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' on the ability of leaf tissue to metabolize and respond to glucose.
