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 Maf polymorphic toxin system is involved in conflict between strains found in pathogenic Neisseria species such as Neisseria meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. The genes encoding the Maf polymorphic toxin system are found in specific genomic islands called maf genomic islands (MGIs). In the MGIs, the MafB and MafI encode toxin and immunity proteins, respectively. Although the C-terminal region of MafB (MafB-CT) is specific for toxic activity, the underlying enzymatic activity that renders MafB-CT toxic is unknown in many MafB proteins due to lack of homology with domain of known function. Here we present the crystal structure of the MafB2-CT
