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

A new method for the selection of Pichia stipitis and Hansenula polymorpha yeast mutants with altered capability to ferment xylose to ethanol was developed. The method is based on the ability of P. stipitis and H. polymorpha colonies to grow and produce ethanol on agar plates with xylose as the sole carbon and energy source. Secreted ethanol, in contrast to xylose, supports growth of cells of the indicator xylose-negative strains (the wild-type strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Deltaxyl1 mutant of H. polymorpha) mixed with agar medium. The size of the tester culture-growth zone around xylose-grown colonies appeared to be dependent on the amount of secreted ethanol. Mutants with altered (decreased or elevated) ethanol production in xylose medium have been isolated using this method. The mutants exhibited pleiotropic alterations in enzymatic activities of the intermediary xylose metabolism.
