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

Gram-negative bacteria coordinate the biosynthesis of their different cell envelope components. Growth of the outer membrane (OM) requires the essential β-barrel assembly machine (BAM), which inserts OM proteins (OMPs) into the OM. The underlying peptidoglycan (PG) sacculus grows by the insertion of nascent glycan chains. We have previously identified interactions between BAM and PG in E. coli and showed that these interactions coordinate OM biogenesis with PG growth. BAM responds to the maturation state of the PG, and this mechanism activates preferentially BAM complexes at sites of active PG synthesis. Here we present protocols to purify soluble Bam proteins and full-length BamABCDE, isolate PG and soluble PG fragments, and study BAM-PG interactions with the isolated components. We also describe the protocol to detect interactions between Bam proteins and PG in cells.
