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

Chromosomal DNA restriction enzyme analysis and Southern blot hybridization were used to characterize Serpulina hyodysenteriae strains. When chromosomal DNAs from selected strains (reference serotypes) of S. hyodysenteriae were digested with the restriction endonuclease Sau3A and hybridized with a 1.1-kb S. hyodysenteriae-specific DNA probe, a common 3-kb band was always detected in S. hyodysenteriae strains but was absent from Serpulina innocens strains. When the chromosomal DNA was digested with the restriction endonuclease Asp 700 and hybridized with two S. hyodysenteriae-specific DNA probes (0.75 and 1.1 kb of DNA), distinct hybridization patterns for each S. hyodysenteriae reference strain and the Australian isolate S. hyodysenteriae 5380 were detected. Neither the 1.1-kb nor the 0.75-kb DNA probe hybridized with Asp 700- or Sau3A-digested S. innocens chromosomal DNA. The presence of the 3-kb Sau3A DNA fragment in S. hyodysenteriae reference strains from diverse geographical locations shows that this fragment is conserved among S. hyodysenteriae strains and can be used as a species-specific marker. Restriction endonuclease analysis and Southern blot hybridization with these well-defined DNA probes are reliable and accurate methods for species-specific and strain-specific identification of S. hyodysenteriae.
