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

Fission yeast strains have been engineered so that their growth behavior reflects the activity of heterologous cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs). These strains can be used in High-Throughput Screens (HTSs) for PDE inhibitors that possess "drug-like" characteristics, displaying activity in a growth stimulation assay over a 48-h period. Through three generations of development, a collection of strains expressing 10 of the 11 mammalian PDE families that is appropriate for small molecule inhibitor screening has been generated in our laboratory. Strains unable to synthesize cyclic nucleotides allow characterization of PDE activity in that the enzyme's potency is reflected in the amount of either cAMP or cGMP that must be added to the growth medium to stimulate cell growth. In the future, this system could be used to screen cDNA libraries for biological regulators of target PDEs and for the construction of strains that co-express PDEs and associated regulatory proteins to facilitate molecular and genetic studies of their functions and, in particular, to identify whether different PDE-partner protein complexes show distinct patterns of inhibitor sensitivity.
