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

A physical and genetic map of the Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 chromosome was constructed. The macrorestriction map for CeuI, EagI, and SstII was created by ordering the 38 restriction sites by one- and two-dimensional pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and by using an original strategy based on the CeuI enzyme and indirect end labelling by hybridization on both sides of the CeuI sites with rrs (16S RNA) and 3' rrl (23S RNA) probes. The circular chromosome was estimated to be 4.15 Mb in size, and the average resolution of the physical map is 110 kb. The chromosome contains 11 rrn loci, which are localized on 44% of the chromosome in a divergent transcriptional orientation regarding the presumed location of the replication origin. In addition to these 11 rrn operons, a total of 40 identified genes were mapped by hybridization experiments with genes from C. acetobutylicum and from various other clostridia as probes. The genetic map of C. acetobutylicum was compared to that of the three other endospore-forming bacteria characterized so far: Bacillus subtilis, Clostridium beijerinckii, and Clostridium perfringens. Parodoxically, the chromosomal backbone of C. acetobutylicum showed more similarity to that of B. subtilis than to those of the clostridia.
