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

The emergence and quick spread of the plasmid-mediated tigecycline resistance gene tet(X4) and colistin resistance gene mcr-1 have posed a great threat to public health and raised global concerns. It is imperative to develop rapid and accurate detection systems for the onsite surveillance of mcr-1 and tet(X4). In this study, we developed one-tube recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and CRISPR-Cas12b integrated mcr-1 and tet(X4) detection systems. We identified mcr-1- and tet(X4)-conserved and -specific protospacers through a comprehensive BLAST search based on the NCBI nt database and used them for assembling the detection systems. Our developed one-tube RPA-CRISPR-Cas12b-based detection systems enabled the specific detection of mcr-1 and tet(X4) with a sensitivity of 6.25 and 9 copies within a detection time of ~ 55 and ~ 40 min, respectively. The detection results using pork and associated environmental samples collected from retail markets demonstrated that our developed mcr-1 and tet(X4) detection systems could successfully monitor mcr-1 and tet(X4), respectively. Notably, mcr-1- and tet(X4)-positive strains were isolated from the positive samples, as revealed using the developed detection systems. Whole-genome sequencing of representative strains identified an mcr-1-carrying IncI2 plasmid and a tet(X4)-carrying IncFII plasmid, which are known as important vectors for mcr-1 and tet(X4) transmission, respectively. Taken together, our developed one-tube RPA-CRISPR-Cas12b-based mcr-1 and tet(X4) detection systems show promising potential for the onsite detection of mcr-1 and tet(X4). KEY POINTS: • One-tube RPA-CRISPR-Cas12b-based mcr-1 and tet(X4) detection systems were developed based on identified novel protospacers. • Both detection systems exhibited high sensitivity and specification with a sample-to-answer time of less than 1 h. • The detection systems show promising potential for onsite detection of mcr-1 and tet(X4).
