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

A novel gene encoding transglycosylating beta-galactosidase (BGase) was cloned from Penicillium expansum F3. The sequence contained a 3,036-bp open reading frame encoding a 1,011-amino-acid protein. This gene was subsequently expressed on the cell surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae EBY-100 by galactose induction. The BGase-anchored yeast could directly utilize lactose to produce galactooligosaccharide (GOS), as well as the by-products glucose and a small quantity of galactose. The glucose was consumed by the yeast, and the galactose was used for BGase expression, thus greatly facilitating GOS synthesis. The GOS yield reached 43.64% when the recombinant yeast was cultivated in yeast nitrogen base-Casamino Acids medium containing 100 g/liter initial lactose at 25 degrees C for 5 days. The yeast cells were harvested and recycled for the next batch of GOS synthesis. During sequential operations, both oligosaccharide synthesis and BGase expression were maintained at high levels with GOS yields of over 40%, and approximately 8 U/ml of BGase was detected in each batch.
