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

Sugar uptake in Sulfolobus solfataricus, a thermoacidophilic archaeon, occurs through high-affinity binding of protein-dependent ABC transporters. We have investigated the expression patterns of two sugar transport operons, that is, the glucose and arabinose transporters. Analysis of the araS promoter activity, and the mRNA and protein levels in S. solfataricus cells grown on different carbon sources showed that expression of the arabinose transporter gene cluster is highly regulated and dependent on the presence of arabinose in the medium. Glucose in the growth medium repressed the expression of the arabinose transport genes. By means of primer extension, the transcriptional start site for the arabinose operon was mapped. Interestingly, expression of the arabinose transporter is down-regulated by addition of a selective set of amino acids to the medium. Expression of the glucose transporter genes appeared constitutive. These data confirm the earlier observation of a catabolite repression-like system in S. solfataricus.
