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

Intracellular bacteria have evolved various strategies to evade host defense mechanisms. Remarkably, the obligately intracellular bacterium, Ehrlichia chaffeensis, hijacks host cell processes of the mononuclear phagocyte to evade host defenses through mechanisms executed in part by tandem repeat protein (TRP) effectors secreted by the type 1 secretion system. In the past decade, TRP120 has emerged as a model moonlighting effector, acting as a ligand mimetic, nucleomodulin and ubiquitin ligase. These defined functions illuminate the diverse roles TRP120 plays in exploiting and manipulating host cell processes, including cytoskeletal organization, vesicle trafficking, cell signaling, transcriptional regulation, post-translational modifications, autophagy and apoptosis. This review will focus on TRP effectors and their expanding roles in infection and provide perspective on Ehrlichia chaffeensis as an invaluable model organism for understanding infection strategies of obligately intracellular bacteria.
