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

Genetic characteristics of virulent genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa attracted significant attention for they could govern their drug-resistances. Studies on the componential usage divergences in the virulent genes are beneficial for further explicating their molecular characteristics. In present study, one thousand complete genomes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were considered to study the molecular characteristics of 21 typical virulent genes. The important componential usage patterns (i.e., the base usage pattern, the codon usage pattern and their divergences) of 21 specific virulent genes were counted and calculated. The results show that (1) most virulent genes concerned in the present study are high GC sequences (overall GC ratio > 50%), especially from the codon usage perspective, the virulent genes are obviously GC3-abundant sequences (GC3 ratio > 70%); (2) the relative synonymous codon usage of all concerned virulent genes are uneven, especially in the anvM and the lptA, there is no codon for some certain amino acids, which could reveal their obvious codon usage bias; (3) some genes (i.e., the oprF and the fadD1) with lower divergence have steady effective number of codons. The findings of the present work would improve novel insights on the genetic characteristics of virulent genes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
