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

Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen that has evolved a unique biphasic developmental cycle. The infectious form of C. burnetii is the dormant small cell variant (SCV), which transitions to a metabolically active large cell variant (LCV) that replicates inside the lysosome-derived host vacuole. A Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS), which can deliver over 100 effector proteins to host cells, is essential for the biogenesis of the vacuole and intracellular replication. How the distinct C. burnetii life cycle impacts the assembly and function of the Dot/Icm T4SS has remained unknown. Here, we combine advanced cryo-focused ion beam (cryo-FIB) milling and cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) imaging to visualize all developmental transitions and the assembly of the Dot/Icm T4SS
