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 development of high-throughput sequencing technology has led to a significant reduction in the time and cost of sequencing whole genomes of bacterial pathogens. Studies can sequence and compare hundreds or even thousands of genomes within a given bacterial population. A phylogenetic tree is the most frequently used method of depicting the relationships between these bacterial pathogen genomes. However, the presence of homologous recombination in most bacterial pathogen species can invalidate the application of standard phylogenetic tools. Here we describe a method to produce phylogenetic analyses that accounts for the disruptive effect of recombination. This allows users to investigate the recombination events that have occurred, as well as to produce more meaningful phylogenetic analyses which recover the clonal genealogy representing the clonal relationships between genomes.
