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

Porphyromonas gingivalis can induce its uptake by host epithelial cells; however, the nature and role of the P. gingivalis molecules involved in this invasion process have yet to be determined. In this study, modulation of secreted P. gingivalis proteins following association with gingival epithelial cells was investigated. Western immunoblot analysis showed that contact with epithelial cells or epithelial cell growth media induces P. gingivalis 33277 to secrete several proteins with molecular masses between 35 and 95 kDa. Secretion of the Arg-gingipain and Lys-gingipain proteases was repressed under these conditions. The contact-induced secreted protein profile was altered in Arg-gingipain-deficient and Lys-gingipain-deficient mutants, indicating a possible role for these proteases in the secretion pathway. The P. gingivalis contact-dependent protein secretion pathway differs to some extent from type III protein secretion pathways in enteric pathogens, as a gene homologous to the invA family genes was not detected in P. gingivalis. The secreted proteins of P. gingivalis may play a role in the interactions of the organism with host cells.
