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

Bacterial gene expression depends on the allocation of limited transcriptional resources provided a particular growth rate and growth condition. Early studies in a few genes suggested this global regulation to generate a unifying hyperbolic expression pattern. Here, we developed a large-scale method that generalizes these experiments to quantify the response to growth of over 700 genes that a priori do not exhibit any specific control. We distinguish a core subset following a promoter-specific hyperbolic response. Within this group, we sort genes with regard to their responsiveness to the global regulatory program to show that those with a particularly sensitive linear response are located near the origin of replication. We then find evidence that this genomic architecture is biologically significant by examining position conservation of E. coli genes in 100 bacteria. The response to the transcriptional resources of the cell results in an additional feature contributing to bacterial genome organization.
