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

Vibrio toranzoniae is a marine bacterium belonging to the Splendidus clade that was originally isolated from healthy clams in Galicia (NW Spain). Its isolation from different hosts and seawater indicated two lifestyles and wide geographical distribution. The aim of the present study was to determine the differences at the genomic level among six strains (4 isolated from clam and 2 from seawater) and to determine their phylogeny. For this purpose, whole genomes of the six strains were sequenced by different technologies including Illumina and PacBio, and the resulting sequences were corrected. Genomes were annotated and compared using different online tools. Furthermore, the study of core- and pan-genomes were examined, and the phylogeny was inferred. The content of the core genome ranged from 2953 to 2766 genes and that of the pangenome ranged from 6278 to 6132, depending on the tool used. Although the strains shared certain homology, with DDH values ranging from 77.10 to 82.30 and values of OrthoANI values higher than 97%, some differences were found related to motility, capsule synthesis, iron acquisition systems or mobile genetic elements. Phylogenetic analysis of the core genome did not reveal a differentiation of the strains according to their lifestyle (commensal or free-living), but that of the pangenome indicated certain geographical isolation in the same growing area. This study led to the reclassification of some isolates formerly described as V. toranzoniae and demonstrated the importance of cured deposited sequences to proper phylogenetic assignment.
