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

Two glucose-phosphorylating enzymes, a hexokinase phosphorylating both glucose and fructose, and a glucose-specific glucokinase were electrophoretically separated in the methylotrophic yeast Hansenula polymorpha. Hexokinase-negative, glucokinase-negative and double kinase-negative mutants were isolated in H. polymorpha by using mutagenesis, selection and genetic crosses. Regulation of synthesis of the sugar-repressed alcohol oxidase, catalase and maltase was studied in different hexose kinase mutants. In the wild type and in mutants possessing either hexokinase or glucokinase, glucose repressed the synthesis of maltase, alcohol oxidase and catalase. Glucose repression of alcohol oxidase and catalase was abolished in mutants lacking both glucose-phosphorylating enzymes (i.e. in double kinase-negative mutants). Thus, glucose repression in H. polymorpha cells requires a glucose-phosphorylating enzyme, either hexokinase or glucokinase. The presence of fructose-phosphorylating hexokinase in the cell was specifically needed for fructose repression of alcohol oxidase, catalase and maltase. Hence, glucose or fructose has to be phosphorylated in order to cause repression of the synthesis of these enzymes in H. polymorpha suggesting that sugar repression in this yeast therefore relies on the catalytic activity of hexose kinases.
