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

A yeast reporter gene assay system with improved performance for dioxin detection was established. Since yeast reporter gene assays are relatively simple, easy to handle, and inexpensive, they have been used for various assessments of environmental contaminants. We previously constructed a yeast assay strain expressing the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and AhR nuclear translocator (Arnt) carrying the lacZ reporter gene, for detection of dioxins. In the present study, genes encoding cell wall mannoproteins and ATP-binding cassette transporters in the yeast assay strains were deleted in order to increase the substance influx and prevent its efflux. We also established an assay procedure for protoplasts of these yeasts. These modifications improved the detection limit 40-fold and reduced the duration of the assay by 40%. By combining the yeast protoplast and a rapid sample preparation technique using disposal multilayer solid-phase extraction columns to remove unintended aryl hydrocarbons, this yeast reporter gene assay system detected the ligand activities of dioxins and related compounds in 1 g of forest soil containing dioxins at a concentration 10 times lower than the Japanese environmental standard for dioxins in soil.
