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

Cloning, sequencing and functional analysis of the Kluyveromyces lactis KlHEM12 gene and its upstream region are reported. The gene encodes for a protein that is highly homologous to uroporphyrinogen decarboxylases from different organisms and complements its mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Secondary structure prediction allows outlining a topology diagram which is compatible with a (beta/alpha)8-barrel structure. A K. lactis haploid strain carrying a null allele of KlHEM12 showed decreased growth in media not supplemented with hemin (ferriprotoporphyrin IX) and red-fluorescent colonies due to the accumulation of porphyrins. KlHEM12 expression was analysed by Northern blot and promoter fusion to the reporter lacZ gene. Transcription of this gene is not under heme or glucose repression and it is slightly induced by non-fermentable carbon sources through the Hap2/3/4/5 complex.
