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

L-Threonine is an important branched-chain amino acid and could be applied in feed, drugs, and food. In this study, L-threonine production in an L-threonine-producing Escherichia coli strain TWF001 was significantly increased by overexpressing the gene cluster phaCAB from Ralstonia eutropha. TWF001/pFW01-phaCAB could produce 96.4-g/L L-threonine in 3-L fermenter and 133.5-g/L L-threonine in 10-L fermenter, respectively. In addition, TWF001/pFW01-phaCAB produced 216% more acetyl-CoA, 43% more malate, and much less acetate than the vector control TWF001/pFW01, and meanwhile, TWF001/pFW01-phaCAB produced poly-3-hydroxybutyrate, while TWF001/pFW01 did not. Transcription analysis showed that the key genes in the L-threonine biosynthetic pathway were up-regulated, the genes relevant to the acetate formation were down-regulated, and the gene acs encoding the enzyme which converts acetate to acetyl-CoA was up-regulated. The results suggested that overexpression of the gene cluster phaCAB in E. coli benefits the enhancement of L-threonine production.
