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

The gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic human pathogen that contains two different types of strains: the "classical" and the "outlier". In the "classical" strain, its bacterial subfamily I.1 lipases, such as LipA and LipC in P. aeruginosa PAO1, play critical roles in its pathogenicity. However, less is known about the subfamily I.1 lipases in the "outlier" strain, nor the evolution paths of those lipases in both types of P. aeruginosa strains. Our genome-scale investigation on I.1 lipases across different bacterial strains demonstrates the presence of one LipA-like and one new type of I.1 lipase (LipC2) in those "outlier" strains. The related genomic islands analyses further suggest that the LipC counterpart gene in the "outlier" strain was lost by gene truncation. In addition, the evolutionary analyses also indicates the horizontal LipC2 gene transfer from other gammaproteobacterial species, as well as the horizontal LipA gene transfer between two different phyla, both suggesting that the gene transfer of bacterial I.1 lipases might occur in different taxonomical levels. Our results not only provide an evidence to understand the pathogenicity among different P. aeruginosa strains, but add to the knowledge of I.1 lipase evolution in bacteria.
