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

Levilactobacillus brevis are present in various environments, such as beer, fermented foods, silage, and animal host. Like other lactic acid bacteria, L. brevis might adopt the viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state under unfavorable conditions. The toxin-antitoxin (TA) system, known to regulate cell growth in response to environmental stresses, is found to control the dynamic of the VBNC state. Here, we investigate the type II TA locus prevalence and compare the TA diversity in L. brevis genomes. Using the TAfinder software, we identified a total of 273 putative type II TA loci in 110 replicons of 21 completely sequenced genomes. Genome size does not appear to correlate with the amount of putative type II TA in L. brevis. Besides, type II TA loci are distributed differently among the chromosomes and plasmids. The most prevalent toxin domain is MazF-like in the chromosomes, and RelE/RelE-like in the plasmids; while for antitoxin, Xre-like and Phd-like domains are the most common in the chromosomes and plasmids, respectively. We also observed a unique GNAT-like/ArsR-like TA pair that presents only in the L. brevis chromosome. Detection of 273 putative type II TA loci in 21 complete genomes of Levilactobacillus brevis.
