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

backgroundLactobacillus reuteri is a gram-positive, non-motile bacterial species that has been used as a representative microorganism model to describe the ecology and evolution of vertebrate gut symbionts.

objectiveBecause the genetic features and evolutionary strategies of L. reuteri from the gastrointestinal tract of canines remain unknown, we tried to construct draft genome canine L. reuteri and investigate modified, acquired, or lost genetic features that have facilitated the evolution and adaptation of strains to specific environmental niches by this study.

methodsTo examine canine L. reuteri, we sequenced an L. reuteri strain isolated from a dog in Korea. A comparative genomic approach was used to assess genetic diversity and gain insight into the distinguishing features related to different hosts based on 27 published genomic sequences.

resultsThe pan-genome of 28 L. reuteri strains contained 7,369 gene families, and the core genome contained 1070 gene families. The ANI tree based on the core genes in the canine L. reuteri strain (C1) was very close to those for three strains (IRT, DSM20016, JCM1112) from humans. Evolutionarily, these four strains formed one clade, which we regarded as C1-clade in this study. We could investigate a total of 32,050 amino acid substitutions among the 28 L. reuteri strain genomes. In this comparison, 283 amino acid substitutions were specific to strain C1 and four strains in C1-clade shared most of these 283 C1-strain specific amino acid substitutions, suggesting strongly similar selective pressure. In accessory genes, we could identify 127 C1-clade host-specific genes and found that several genes were closely related to replication, recombination, and repair.

conclusionThis study provides new insights into the adaptation of L. reuteri to the canine intestinal habitat, and suggests that the genome of L. reuteri from canines is closely associated with their living and shared environment with humans.
