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

Integrons confer a rapid adaptation capability to bacteria. Integron integrases are able to capture and shuffle novel functions embedded in cassettes. Here, we investigated cassette recruitment in the Vibrio cholerae chromosomal integron during horizontal transfer. We demonstrated that the endogenous integrase expression is sufficiently triggered, after SOS response induction mediated by the entry of cassettes during conjugation and natural transformation, to mediate significant cassette insertions. These insertions preferentially occur at the attIA site, despite the presence of about 180 attC sites in the integron array. Thanks to the presence of a promoter in the attIA site vicinity, all these newly inserted cassettes are expressed and prone to selection. We also showed that the RecA protein is critical for cassette recruitment in the V. cholerae chromosomal integron but not in mobile integrons. Moreover, unlike the mobile integron integrases, that of V. cholerae is not active in other bacteria. Mobile integrons might have evolved from the chromosomal ones by overcoming host factors, explaining their large dissemination in bacteria and their role in antibioresistance expansion.
