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 pel1 mutation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the Cgpgs1Delta mutation in Candida glabrata result in deficiency of mitochondrial phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase and lack of two anionic phospholipids, phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin. DNA sequence analysis of the PCR-amplified pel1 mutant allele revealed that the pel1 mutation resulted from a single amino-acid substitution (Glu(463)Lys) in the C-terminal part of encoded enzyme. The CgPGS1 gene cloned in a centromeric pFL38 vector functionally complemented the pel1 mutation in S. cerevisiae. Likewise, the ScPGS1 gene cloned in pCgACU5 plasmid fully complemented the Cgpgs1Delta mutation in C. glabrata. This mutation increased the cell surface hydrophobicity and decreased biofilm formation. These results support a close evolutionary relatedness of S. cerevisiae and C. glabrata and point to the relationship between expression of virulence factors and anionic phospholipid deficiency in pathogenic C. glabrata.
