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

Gene expression heterogeneity has an impact on human bacterial pathogens responses, including antimicrobial resistance genes expression. Promoter region variability in resistance genes may include different regulatory boxes involved in metabolic processes essential for bacterial survival. In this study, a molecular tool was developed to characterize promoter region variability and resistance gene expression. For these, 46 bacterial clinical isolates were used. Sequence analysis of resistance genes promoter region showed the existence of different variants for each promoter and identified gene-specific regulatory boxes. Using a fluorescent transcriptional reporter, we analysed the most common promoter variants of the most prevalent acquired resistance genes in clinical isolates (qnrA, qnrB, bla
