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

backgroundMembers of Enterobacteriaceae such as Escherichia coli O 157:H7, Salmonella sp., Shigella sp., Klebsiella sp., and Citrobacter freundii are responsible for the outbreak of serious foodborne illness and other mucosal infections across the globe. The outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of Enterobacteriaceae are highly immunogenic in eliciting immune responses against pathogens. Moreover, the OMPs are highly conserved in the Enterobacteriaceae family. Sequence homology in the OMPs will ensure the presence of conserved immunodominant regions with predominant epitopes. The OmpL is such an immunogen that is highly conserved among the Enterobacteriaceae pathogens. In this study, we performed computational analysis on the outer membrane porin (Omp) L of prominent Enterobacteriaceae pathogens.

resultsMultiple sequence and structural alignment analysis have revealed that the OmpL protein is highly conserved among the selected Enterobacteriaceae pathogens. This amount of sequence and structural homology uncovered the conserved antibody binding B-cell epitopes in the OmpL protein. The B-cell epitopes predicted in the OmpL of Salmonella typhimurium are highly conserved among the other Enterobacteriaceae pathogens.

conclusionIn conclusion, these conserved B-cell epitopes will vouch for the generation of heterologous humoral immune response in conferring cross protection against the Enterobacteriaceae pathogens and control their outbreaks across the globe.
