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

Citrate synthase, the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid branch of the Krebs cycle, was shown to be required for de novo synthesis of glutamate and glutamine in Listeria monocytogenes. The citrate synthase (citZ) gene was found to be part of a complex operon with the upstream genes lmo1569 and lmo1568. The downstream isocitrate dehydrogenase (citC) gene appears to be part of the same operon as well. Two promoters were shown to drive citZ expression, a distal promoter located upstream of lmo1569 and a proximal promoter located upstream of the lmo1568 gene. Transcription of citZ from both promoters was regulated by CcpC by interaction with a single site; assays of transcription in vivo and assays of CcpC binding in vitro revealed that CcpC interacts with and represses the proximal promoter that drives expression of the lmo1568, citZ, and citC genes and, by binding to the same site, prevents read-through transcription from the distal, lmo1569 promoter. Expression of the lmo1568 operon was not affected by the carbon source but was repressed during growth in complex medium by addition of glutamine.
