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

Cell wall anchoring of surface proteins and pili in Gram-positive bacteria is mediated by sortase - a highly conserved transpeptidase enzyme. Early studies have demonstrated the membrane-associated nature of this enzyme in close proximity with its cognate substrates, using immunogold-labeling thin-section electron microscopy. Here, we provide a detail protocol of this methodology, including specimen preparation, ultrathin sectioning, and immunogold-labeling electron microscopic procedures, with an experimental model of sortase enzymes from Actinomyces oris. In principle, this protocol can be employed for any bacterial ultrathin-section samples to detect subcellular localization of proteins and organelles by immuno-electron microscopy.
