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

backgroundIn the L-histidine (His) biosynthetic pathway of Escherichia coli, the first key enzyme, ATP-phosphoribosyltransferase (ATP-PRT, HisG), is subject to different types of inhibition. Eliminating the feedback inhibition of HisG by the His end product is an important step that enables the oversynthesis of His in breeding strains. However, the previously reported feedback inhibition-resistant mutant enzyme from E. coli, HisG

resultsFor the first time, both the native E. coli HisG and the previously described feedback-resistant mutant HisG

conclusionsInhibition of a key enzyme in the His biosynthetic pathway, HisG, by AICAR, which is formed in this pathway, generates a serious bottleneck during His production. The constructed His-producing strain demonstrated the enhanced expression of genes that encode enzymes involved in the metabolism of AICAR to ATP, which is a substrate of HisG, and thus led to improved His accumulation.
