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

Bacterial infections are a major threat to public health. Pathogen host shifts-where a pathogen jumps from one host species to another-are important sources of emerging infectious diseases. However, compared with viruses, we know relatively little about the factors that determine whether bacteria can infect a novel host, such as how host phylogenetics constrains variation in pathogen host range and the link between host phylogeny and the infectivity and virulence of a pathogen. Here, we experimentally examined susceptibility to bacterial infections using a panel of 36 Drosophilidae species and four pathogens (
