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

Smk1 is a meiosis-specific MAPK homolog in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that regulates the postmeiotic program of spore formation. Similar to other MAPKs, it is activated via phosphorylation of the T-X-Y motif in its regulatory loop, but the signals controlling Smk1 activation have not been defined. Here we show that Ama1, a meiosis-specific activator of the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), promotes Smk1 activation during meiosis. A weakened allele of CDC28 suppresses the sporulation defect of an ama1 null strain and increases the activation state of Smk1. The function of Ama1 in regulating Smk1 is independent of the FEAR network, which promotes exit from mitosis and exit from meiosis I through the Cdc14 phosphatase. The data indicate that Cdc28 and Ama1 function in a pathway to trigger Smk1-dependent steps in spore morphogenesis. We propose that this novel mechanism for controlling MAPK activation plays a role in coupling the completion of meiosis II to gamete formation.
