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

Salmonellae display intricate evolutionary patterns comprising over 2500 serovars having diverse pathogenic profiles. The acquisition and/or exchange of various virulence factors influences the evolutionary framework. To gain insights into evolution of Salmonella in association with the CRISPR-Cas genes we performed phylogenetic surveillance across strains of 22 Salmonella serovars. The strains differed in their CRISPR1-leader and cas operon features assorting into two main clades, CRISPR1-STY/cas-STY and CRISPR1-STM/cas-STM, comprising majorly typhoidal and non-typhoidal Salmonella serovars respectively. Serovars of these two clades displayed better relatedness, concerning CRISPR1-leader and cas operon, across genera than between themselves. This signifies the acquisition of CRISPR1/Cas region could be through a horizontal gene transfer event owing to the presence of mobile genetic elements flanking CRISPR1 array. Comparison of CRISPR and cas phenograms with that of multilocus sequence typing (MLST) suggests differential evolution of CRISPR/Cas system. As opposed to broad-host-range, the host-specific serovars harbor fewer spacers. Mapping of protospacer sources suggested a partial correlation of spacer content with habitat diversity of the serovars. Some serovars like serovar Enteritidis and Typhimurium that inhabit similar environment/infect similar hosts hardly shared their protospacer sources.
