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

Yeast cell death is triggered when essential nutrients such as potassium and lipid are limited but ammonium is in excess. When ammonium and glucose were maintained at 100% of the normal concentration while all the other essential nutrients in yeast nitrogen base (YNB) were reduced to 2%, yeast growth was halted by ammonium toxicity. Yeast started to grow again when either ammonium was also reduced to 2% or gluconate was added, but simultaneously adding gluconate as well as reducing all the nutrients except glucose 50-fold revived yeast growth to a greater extent, i.e. a quarter of the normal growth. Gluconate, as well as formate and alginate, stimulated yeast growth by buffering the drop in pH. Yeast cells were seemingly more susceptible to low pH under the nutrient-limited conditions, entering the stationary phase at pH higher than that of the normal condition. Carboxylate salts may prove a cost-efficient replacement for large proportions of the essential nutrients as yeast cells, in the presence of 2 mg ml
