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

Mycelial morphogenesis and the production of fungal secretory proteins are still largely unknown. A mutant strain of Aspergillus carbonarius UV-10046 produced abundant polygalacturonase (PG) along with partially saturated canthaxanthin (PSC) at low pH conditions. In the present study, the relationship between PG secretion and PSC biosynthesis was studied using carotenogenic inhibitors and SDS-PAGE electrophoresis. Also the correlation between morphogenesis and PG secretion was investigated by analysing through microscopic studies. From the results, it was observed that secretion of PG was positively influenced by the PSC biosynthesis. The results also showed that the mutant with hairy mycelial structure resulted in higher PG activity when compared to the wild type that lacks hyper branching. From the results, it was confirmed that a mutation might have occurred in the isoprenoid pathway that has helped mutant for survival at acidic conditions. Further, an alteration in the morphogenesis and hyper branching development caused over secretion of PG enzyme in the mutant.
