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

RTX toxins are important virulence factors produced by a wide range of Gram-negative bacteria. They are secreted as water-soluble proteins that are able to bind to the host cell membrane and insert hydrophobic segments into the lipid bilayer that ultimately contribute to the formation of transmembrane pores. Ion diffusion through these pores leads then to cytotoxic and cytolytic effects on the hosts. Several reports have evidenced that the binding of several RTX toxins to the target cell membrane may take place through a high-affinity interaction with integrins of the β
