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

As a response regulator of the EsrA-EsrB two-component system, EsrB is conserved in IMPORTANCE: As a crucial virulence regulator, EsrB possesses a LuxR-like superfamily domain at the C-terminal, which is conserved within the canonical NarL family regulators. Due to its critically important role in virulence and pathogenicity in fish hosts, the DNA binding ability has been believed to allow EsrB to regulate genes associated with the invasion process of host cells and basal metabolism in response to environmental stimuli. The lack of EsrB's crystal structure has been a major obstacle in understanding the molecular mechanisms of EsrB-DNA interaction which choreographs EsrB-mediated pathogenic behavior. Here, we conducted ChIP-seq and solved the crystal structure of the C-terminal of EsrB (EsrBC) at 2.20-Å resolution, which revealed that EsrB preferred to bind to virulence-associated promoters with a distinct 7'-4-7' pseudopalindromic DNA motif and interacted with metabolic-related promoters with a high AT DNA motif in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) (mimicking
