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

The consumption of lactate and amino acids is very important for microbial development and/or aroma production during cheese ripening. A strain of Yarrowia lipolytica isolated from cheese was grown in a liquid medium containing lactate in the presence of a low (0.1x) or high (2x) concentration of amino acids. Our results show that there was a dramatic increase in the growth of Y. lipolytica in the medium containing a high amino acid concentration, but there was limited lactate consumption. Conversely, lactate was efficiently consumed in the medium containing a low concentration of amino acids after amino acid depletion was complete. These data suggest that the amino acids are used by Y. lipolytica as a main energy source, whereas lactate is consumed following amino acid depletion. Amino acid degradation was accompanied by ammonia production corresponding to a dramatic increase in the pH. The effect of adding amino acids to a Y. lipolytica culture grown on lactate was also investigated. Real-time quantitative PCR analyses were performed with specific primers for five genes involved in amino acid transport and catabolism, including an amino acid transporter gene (GAP1) and four aminotransferase genes (ARO8, ARO9, BAT1, and BAT2). The expression of three genes involved in lactate transport and catabolism was also studied. These genes included a lactate transporter gene (JEN1) and two lactate dehydrogenase genes (CYB2-1 and CYB2-2). Our data showed that GAP1, BAT2, BAT1, and ARO8 were maximally expressed after 15 to 30 min following addition of amino acids (BAT2 was the most highly expressed gene), while the maximum expression of JEN1, CYB2-1, and CYB2-2 was delayed (>or=60 min).
