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

We established a Thermus thermophilus strain in which the pyrE gene (coding for orotate phosphoribosyltransferase of the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway) was totally deleted. We also constructed an integration vector, which consisted of the Escherichia coli plasmid vector pBluescript and a 2.1-kb segment of the T. thermophilus leu operon sequence, for the integration of a foreign gene into a chromosome of the thermophile. pyrE and leuB genes were used as probes to test the integration vector. The integration vector pINV, bearing the pyrE gene, transformed the delta pyrE strain at a frequency of 6 x 10(-5) through a single crossover event. The leuB gene could also be used as another marker of the integration vector system. The vector could be integrated at the expected site. By digesting the chromosomal DNA of the T. thermophilus transformants with a unique restriction enzyme, the vector could be recovered into E. coli after the recircularization in vitro. The kanamycin nucleotidyltransferase gene could be successfully expressed in the thermophile by using pINV.
