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 search for optimization principles in microbial metabolism, such as biomass or ATP yields or growth rate optimization, has attracted substantial research efforts in the recent years. Here we use the results of C13 labeling experiments together with genome scale metabolic networks of S cerevisiae and E coli in order to assess if there are relationships between systemic variables that are present in both organisms. Strong correlations between the total flux per unit of substrate and the ATP turnover rate per unit of substrate and between the growth rate divided by the total flux and the total flux per unit of substrate were observed for both organisms. We also observed that the common assumption of biomass yield optimization is not consistent with the experiments.
