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

Adaptation to the intracellular environment of host cells is crucial for the pathogenesis of Salmonella infections. The alternative sigma factor RpoS is a global regulator of gene expression during starvation and stress conditions and is required for virulence in Salmonella spp. We have used lacZ reporter fusions to rpoS and rpoS-dependent genes to study rpoS regulation after entry of Salmonella typhimurium into macrophages and epithelial cells. The results demonstrate that expression of an rpoS::lacZ translational fusion increases rapidly in S. typhimurium after phagocytosis. Activity of RpoS also increases after bacterial entry into both macrophages and epithelial cells, as demonstrated by the induction of the rpoS-regulated genes katE and spvB. A control rpoS-independent promoter for neomycin resistance does not show significant induction after cell entry. These results demonstrate that the regulatory system mediated by RpoS in S. typhimurium is activated by the intracellular environment of eukaryotic cells.
