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

Mounting evidence suggests that d-amino acids play previously underappreciated roles in diverse organisms. In bacteria, even d-amino acids that are absent from canonical peptidoglycan (PG) may act as growth substrates, as signals, or in other functions. Given these proposed roles and the ubiquity of d-amino acids, the paucity of known d-amino-acid-responsive transcriptional control mechanisms in bacteria suggests that such regulation awaits discovery. We found that DarR, a LysR-type transcriptional regulator (LTTR), activates transcription in response to d-Asp. The d-Glu auxotrophy of a
