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

Proteolytic activity plays an essential role in Pseudomonas aeruginosa adaptation and survival in challenging environments, including the infection site. Here, a short review of the eight known proteases secreted by P. aeruginosa and of the methods used to detect their activity is provided. In addition, three simple and handy methods routinely used in our laboratory to detect proteases are described in detail. In particular, the skim milk plate assay and the azocasein assay are useful for the detection of whole proteases activity in colony-growing and cell-free culture supernatants, respectively. Conversely, the Elastin Congo-red assay allows detecting the activity of the LasB elastase, the major protease secreted by P. aeruginosa, in cell-free culture supernatants.
