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 utilization of the hydroaromatic compounds quinate and shikimate by Corynebacterium glutamicum was investigated. C. glutamicum grew well with either quinate or shikimate as the sole carbon source. The disruption of qsuD, encoding quinate/shikimate dehydrogenase, completely suppressed growth with either substrate but did not affect growth with glucose, indicating that the enzyme encoded by qsuD catalyzes the first step of the catabolism of quinate/shikimate but is not involved in the shikimate pathway required for the biosynthesis of various aromatic compounds. On the chromosome of C. glutamicum, the qsuD gene is located in a gene cluster also containing qsuA, qsuB, and qsuC genes, which are probably involved in the quinate/shikimate utilization pathway to form protocatechuate. Reverse transcriptase PCR analyses revealed that the expression of the qsuABCD genes was markedly induced during growth with either quinate or shikimate relative to expression during growth with glucose. The induction level by shikimate was significantly decreased by the disruption of qsuR, which is located immediately upstream of qsuA in the opposite direction and encodes a LysR-type transcriptional regulator, suggesting that QsuR acts as an activator of the qsuABCD genes. The high level of induction of qsuABCD genes by shikimate was still observed in the presence of glucose, and simultaneous consumption of glucose and shikimate during growth was observed.
