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

In this work, we performed a comparative adaptive laboratory evolution experiment of the important biotechnological platform strain Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032 and its prophage-free variant MB001 towards improved growth rates on glucose minimal medium. Both strains displayed a comparable adaptation behavior and no significant differences in genomic rearrangements and mutation frequencies. Remarkably, a significant fitness leap by about 20% was observed for both strains already after 100 generations. Isolated top clones (UBw and UBm) showed an about 26% increased growth rate on glucose minimal medium. Genome sequencing of evolved clones and populations resulted in the identification of key mutations in pyk (pyruvate kinase), fruK (1-phosphofructokinase) and corA encoding a Mg
