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

Foodborne illnesses have major public health and economic impacts. Non-typhoidal Salmonella enterica serovars (Salmonella), associated with the consumption of contaminated poultry products, are among the most common causes of foodborne illness in humans. Vaccination of poultry flocks is one of the main methods to prevent Salmonella infection in poultry; however, the vaccines currently available have limitations. Because of this, there is an urgent need for more effective Salmonella vaccines. Ferric enterobactin receptor (FepA) is a Salmonella outer-membrane protein that shows promise as a vaccine antigen due to its important role in iron acquisition and its ubiquity on the surface of Salmonella. Here, we describe the production of encapsulin nanoparticles displaying antigenic epitopes from FepA in Nicotiana benthamiana. Five FepA-encapsulin fusion proteins were transiently expressed in N. benthamiana leaves and targeted to either the chloroplast or the cytosol. We found that accumulation was highest in the chloroplast, with levels over 0.7 mg·g
