Identification and molecular characterization of two tandemly located flagellin genes from Aeromonas salmonicida A449.
Article in Journal of bacteriology, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Two tandemly located flagellin genes, flaA and flaB, with 79% nucleotide sequence identity were identified in Aeromonas salmonicida A449. The fla genes are conserved in typical and atypical strains of A. salmonicida, and they display significant divergence at the nucleotide level from the fla genes of the motile species Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas veronii biotype sobria. flaA and flaB encode unprocessed flagellins with predicted Mrs of 32,351 and 32,056, respectively. When cloned under the control of the Ptac promoter, flaB was highly expressed when induced in Escherichia coli DH5alpha, and the FlaB protein was detectable even in the uninduced state. In flaA clones containing intact upstream sequence, FlaA was barely detectable when uninduced and poorly expressed on induction. The A. salmonicida flagellins are antigenically cross-reactive with the A. hydrophila TF7 flagellin(s) and evolutionarily closely related to the flagellins of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Vibrio anguillarum. Electron microscopy showed that A. salmonicida A449 expresses unsheathed polar flagella at an extremely low frequency under normal laboratory growth conditions, suggesting the presence of a full complement of genes whose products are required to make flagella; e.g., immediately downstream of flaA and flaB are open reading frames encoding FlaG and FlaH homologs.
