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 biosynthetic potential of soil-dwelling actinomycetes to produce diverse bioactive molecules that are useful as drug seeds has been achieved in the laboratory by modifying culture conditions. Availability of a small molecule that can induce secondary metabolism in these microbes can greatly facilitate the exploration of bioactive natural products. In this manuscript, through the screening of natural products and chemical modification, we demonstrated that the presence of the β-carboline compound, BR-1, enhanced reveromycin A production in Streptomyces sp. SN-593. BR-1 induced reveromycins production at the wide range of concentrations without affecting cell growth. Our study indicates that BR-1 might serve as an alternative to activate specialized metabolite biosynthesis without genetic engineering.
