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 aim of this study was to devise a method to protect Chinese cabbage (Brassica chinensis) and lettuce (Lactuca sativa) from bacterial-disease-induced damage during storage. Thus, the potential of rhapontigenin as a quorum sensing (QS) inhibitor against Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. carotovorum (P. carotovorum) was evaluated. The QS inhibitory effects of rhapontigenin were confirmed by significant inhibition of the production of violacein in Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 (C. violaceum, CV026). The inhibitory effects of rhapontigenin on the motility, exopolysaccharide (EPS) production, biofilm formation and virulence−exoenzyme synthesis of P. carotovorum were investigated. Acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) were quantified using liquid chromatography−mass spectrometry (LC−MS). The inhibitory effects of rhapontigenin on the development of biofilms were observed using fluorescence microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A direct-inoculation assay was performed to investigate the QS inhibitory effects of rhapontigenin on P. carotovorum in Chinese cabbage and lettuce. Our results demonstrated that rhapontigenin exhibited significant inhibition (p < 0.05) of the motility, EPS production, biofilm formation, virulence−exoenzyme synthesis and AHL production of P. carotovorum. Additionally, the result of the direct-inoculation assay revealed that rhapontigenin might provide vegetables with significant shelf-life extension and prevent quality loss by controlling the spread of soft-rot symptoms. Consequently, the study provided a significant insight into the potential of rhapontigenin as a QS inhibitor against P. carotovorum.
