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

Sphingolipids with long chain bases hydroxylated at the C4 position are a requisite for the yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisia, to be sensitive to the ion channel forming antifungal agent, syringomycin E (SRE). A mutant S. cerevisiae strain, Deltasyr2, having sphingolipids with a sphingoid base devoid of C4-hydroxylation, is resistant to SRE. To explore the mechanism of this resistance, we investigated the channel forming activity of SRE in lipid bilayers of varying composition. We found that the addition of sphingolipid-rich fraction from Deltasyr2 to the membrane-forming solution (DOPS/DOPE/ergosterol) resulted in lipid bilayers with lower sensitivity to SRE compared with those containing sphingolipid fraction from wild-type S. cerevisiae. Other conditions being equal, the rate of increase of bilayer conductance was about 40 times slower, and the number of SRE channels was about 40 times less, with membranes containing Deltasyr2 versus wild-type sphingolipids. Deltasyr2 sphingolipids altered neither SRE single channel conductance nor the gating charge but the ability of SRE channels to open synchronously was diminished. The results suggest that the resistance of the Deltasyr2 mutant to SRE may be partly due to the ability of sphingolipids without the C4 hydroxyl group to decrease the channel forming activity of SRE.
