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 diversity and distribution of secretion systems in Klebsiella pneumoniae are unclear. In this study, the six common secretion systems (T1SS-T6SS) were comprehensively investigated in the genomes of 952 K. pneumoniae strains. T1SS, T2SS, type T subtype of T4SS, T5SS, and subtype T6SSi of T6SS were found. The findings indicated fewer types of secretion systems in K. pneumoniae than reported in Enterobacteriaceae, such as Escherichia coli. One conserved T2SS, one conserved T5SS, and two conserved T6SS were detected in more than 90% of the strains. In contrast, the strains displayed extensive diversity of T1SS and T4SS. Notably, T1SS and T4SS were enriched in the hypervirulent and classical multidrug resistance pathotypes of K. pneumoniae, respectively. The results expand the epidemiological knowledge of the virulence and transmissibility of pathogenic K. pneumoniae and contribute to identify the potential strains for safe applications.
