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 strain of F. kyushuense is able to produce aflatoxin B1 and G1 under certain growth conditions. This was ultimately demonstrated by LC-MS analysis. By using a microarray covering oligonucleotides specific for the aflatoxin pathway genes of A. flavus, the expression of homologues of nearly the complete aflatoxin biosynthesis gene cluster was detected in F. kyushuense under producing conditions, e.g., after growth in liquid YES medium. In contrast, after growth of F. kyushuense on solid YES medium, only a very low transcription level of one of the homologues (nor-1) could be observed by microarray and Real Time PCR demonstrating differential gene expression. The cross-hybridization of the F. kyushuense mRNA to the A. flavus aflatoxin biosynthesis gene oligonucleotides of the array indicates homology between the sequences. PCR analyses with primers deduced from the nor-1 gene sequence of the aflatoxin biosynthesis gene cluster from A. flavus revealed the presence of a homologue of this gene in F. kyushuense. Sequencing of PCR fragments of the nor-1 homologue revealed a sequence similarity of >90% to the nor-1 gene of A. flavus.
