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

Continuous culture, transcriptome arrays, and measurements of cellular amino acid pools and tRNA charging levels were used to determine the response of Methanococcus maripaludis to leucine limitation. For comparison, the responses to phosphate and H2 limitations were measured as well. In addition, the effect of growth rate was determined. Leucine limitation resulted in a broad response. tRNA(Leu) charging decreased, but only small increases in mRNA were seen for amino acid biosynthesis genes. However, the cellular levels of free isoleucine and valine showed significant increases, indicating a coordinate regulation of branched-chain amino acids at a post-mRNA level. Leucine limitation also resulted in increased mRNA abundance for ribosomal protein genes, increased rRNA abundance, and decreased mRNA abundance for genes of methanogenesis. In contrast, phosphate limitation induced a specific response, a marked increase in mRNA levels for a phosphate transporter. Some mRNA levels responded to more than one factor; for example, transcripts for flagellum synthesis genes decreased under conditions of leucine limitation and increased under H2 limitation. Increased growth rate resulted in increased mRNA levels for ribosomal protein genes, increased rRNA abundance, and increased mRNA for a gene encoding an S-layer protein.
