Human OVCA2 and its homolog FSH3-induced apoptosis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Article in Current genetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Mammalian ovarian tumor suppressor candidate 2 (OVCA2) gene belongs to the family of serine hydrolase (FSH). This study aimed to elucidate the functional similarities of OVCA2 with its yeast homolog genes (FSH1, FSH2, and FSH3) regarding apoptosis. We found that the expression of OVCA2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), decreased cell growth, disturbed mitochondrial morphology, reduced membrane potential, increased chromatin condensation, and externalization of phosphatidylserine (PS) (annexin V/propidium iodide staining) indicating induced apoptotic cell death in yeast. We also showed that complementation of OVCA2 in fsh3Δ cells reduced cell growth and increased the apoptotic phenotypes. Collectively, our results suggest that complementation of human OVCA2 in fsh3Δ cells induced apoptosis in S. cerevisiae.
