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

Salmonella infections represent an important public health problem. In 2018, a multistate outbreak of S. enterica subsp. enterica serovar Thompson infection associated with contaminated chocolate cakes in schools was reported in South Korea. In this study, we sequenced the 37 S. Thompson strains isolated from chocolate cakes, egg whites, preserves, and cookware associated with the outbreak. In addition, we analyze the genomic sequences of 61 S. Thompson strains (37 chocolate cake-related outbreak strains, 4 strains isolated from outbreaks in South Korea and 20 strains available in the National Center for Biotechnology Information) to assess the genomic characteristics of outbreak-related strains by comparative genomics and phylogenetic analysis. The results showed that identically classified clusters divided strains into two clusters, sub-clusters A & I (with strains from 2018 in South Korea) and sub-clusters B & II (with strains from 2014 to 2015 in South Korea). S. Thompson isolated from South Korea were accurately distinguished from publicly-available strains. Unlike other S. Thompson genomes, those of chocolate cake outbreak-related strains had three Salmonella phages (SEN8, vB SosS Oslo, and SI7) integrated into their chromosome. Comparative genomics revealed several genes responsible for the specific genomic features of chocolate cake outbreak-related strains and three bacteriophages that may contribute to the pathogenicity of other S. Thompson strains.
