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

The tight association of Candida albicans with the human host has driven the evolution of mechanisms that permit metabolic flexibility. Amino acids, present in a free or peptide-bound form, are abundant carbon and nitrogen sources in many host niches. In C. albicans, the capacity to utilize certain amino acids, like proline, is directly connected to fungal morphogenesis and virulence. Yet the precise nature of proline sensing and uptake in this pathogenic fungus has not been investigated. Since C. albicans encodes 10 putative orthologs of the four Saccharomyces cerevisiae proline transporters, we tested deletion strains of the respective genes and identified Gnp2 (CR_09920W) as the main C. albicans proline permease. In addition, we found that this specialization of Gnp2 was reflected in its transcriptional regulation and further assigned distinct substrate specificities for the other orthologs, indicating functional differences of the C. albicans amino acid permeases compared to the model yeast. The physiological relevance of proline uptake is exemplified by the findings that strains lacking
