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

FlgN, FliS, and FliT are flagellar export chaperones specific for FlgK/FlgL, FliC, and FliD, respectively, which are essential component proteins for filament formation. These chaperones facilitate the docking of their cognate substrates to a transmembrane export gate protein, FlhA, to facilitate their subsequent unfolding and export by the flagellar type III secretion system (fT3SS). Dynamic interactions of the chaperones with FlhA are thought to determine the substrate export order. To clarify the role of flagellar chaperones in filament assembly, we constructed cells lacking FlgN, FliS, and/or FliT. Removal of either FlgN, FliS, or FliT resulted in leakage of a large amount of unassembled FliC monomers into the culture media, indicating that these chaperones contribute to robust and efficient filament formation.
