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

Basidiomycetes produce a wide variety of sesquiterpenoids, which attract significant interest in pharmaceutical and industrial applications. Structural diversification of sesquiterpenoids is performed by sesquiterpene synthases (STSs), which produce a wide array of backbone structures; therefore, functional characterization and increased biocatalyst collection of STSs are important for expanding scientific knowledge and meeting the needs of advanced biotechnology. Gene identification and functional annotation of STSs from the basidiomycetous fungi Agaricus bisporus, Auriscalpium vulgare, Lepista nuda, Pleurotus ostreatus and Trametes versicolor were conducted. Through these investigations, the catalytic functions of 30 STSs were revealed using recombinant enzymes heterologously expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Furthermore, the unique function of an STS from P. ostreatus, PoSTS-06, was revealed to be the production of a novel sesquiterpene hydrocarbon that we named pleostene. The absolute structure of pleostene was determined by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography using the crystalline sponge method.
