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

Using RecA as the phylogenetic marker, the relationships of the green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium tepidum and the green non-sulfur bacterium Chloroflexus aurantiacus to other eubacteria were investigated. The recA genes of the two organisms were cloned, and the resulting protein sequences aligned with 86 other eubacterial RecA sequences. Cb. tepidum was placed as the nearest relative to the Cytophaga/Flexibacter/Bacteriodes group, a relationship supported by results obtained with several phylogenetic markers. Cf. aurantiacus was placed near Chlamydia trachomatis and the high-GC Gram-positives; however, this branching pattern was not strongly supported statistically by bootstrap analyses. Possible reasons for this ambiguity are discussed.
