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

Background: Vaccination is the most effective strategy for preventing and controlling infectious diseases in aquaculture. Methods: In this study, a live attenuated mutant strain, designated ΔtssB-EP, was generated from a virulent Edwardsiella piscicida by in-frame deletion of the tssB gene, which encodes a component of the Type VI secretory system, using an allelic exchange approach. A series of Results: The precise deletion of about 506 bp was confirmed by PCR. The studies demonstrated that the ΔtssB-EP (mutant) exhibited a significant reduction in biofilm formation, along with a 2.7 log Conclusion: The results confirm significant attenuation of virulence in the ΔtssB-EP mutant, which elicited a robust immune response and conferred substantial protection against mortality from
