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

BMS-353645, also known as sordarin, was of interest based on its activity against pathogenic fungi. The objective of these studies was to provide high quality starting substrate for chemical modification aimed at further improving biological activity, with particular interest in the inhibition of Aspergillus. In the work presented here, Design of Experiments, or DOE, was successfully combined with traditional approaches to significantly improve sordarin yields in fermentation flasks. Overall, yields were increased 25-fold from <100 microg/g to as high as 2,609 microg/g in flasks through the use of various medium and conduction changes supplemented with DOE. The improved process was then successfully scaled to pilot plant tanks with the best batch producing 2,389 microg/g sordarin at the 250-l scale.
