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

backgroundMicrobial chassis expression systems are valuable tools in biotechnology and synthetic biology, and Bacillus subtilis is an important industrial microbial chassis. Quorum sensing (QS)-based dynamic regulation is widely used to automatically activate gene expression in response to changes in cell density. The main bottleneck currently limiting the use of exogenous QS systems in B. subtilis for efficient autoinducible extracellular expression of recombinant proteins is their low level of autoinducible expression.

resultsA novel B. subtilis autoinducible extracellular expression system based on the LuxI/R-type QS system (lux system) of Vibrio fischeri was developed in which the autoinducible expression of the lux system was enhanced by engineering the sensing module and response module promoters. By engineering the sensing module promoter SP

conclusionsTo our knowledge, this is the first study to report enhanced autoinducible expression of the lux system in B. subtilis by engineering the sensing module promoter SP
