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

Promoters are key DNA elements that regulate bacterial gene expression, yet most existing computational methods demonstrate limited effectiveness in predicting promoters across diverse bacterial species. Here, we propose PBP_ICBA, a deep learning model featuring a dual-path architecture that integrates two-dimensional convolution and improved Convolutional Block Attention Module for accurate species-specific bacterial promoter identification. The model employs a comprehensive encoding scheme combining one-hot encoding, Nucleotide Chemical Property C2, and ESM-2 representations. Evaluation on 13 species-specific bacterial promoter datasets shows that PBP_ICBA achieves superior performance in 11 species. This study provides a robust framework for species-specific bacterial promoter prediction and enhances our understanding of transcriptional regulatory mechanisms. Research data is available in this public repository: https://github.com/liuchang-chun /PBP_ICBAA.
