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

Candida albicans cells homozygous at the mating-type locus stochastically undergo the white-to-opaque switching to become mating-competent. This switching is regulated by a core circuit of transcription factors organized through interlocking feedback loops around the master regulator Wor1. Although a range of distinct environmental cues is known to induce the switching, the pathways linking the external stimuli to the central control mechanism remains largely unknown. By screening a C. albicans haploid gene-deletion library, we found that SAC7 encoding a GTPase-activating protein of Rho1 is required for the white-to-opaque switching. We demonstrate that Sac7 physically associates with Rho1-GTP and the constitutively active Rho1
