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

Saccharomyces cerevisiae with its robustness and good acid tolerance, is an attractive candidate for use in various industries, including waste-based biorefineries where a high-value organic acid is produced, such as fumaric acid could be beneficial. However, this yeast is not a natural producer of dicarboxylic acids, and genetic engineering of S. cerevisiae strains is required to achieve this outcome. Disruption of the natural FUM1 gene and the recombinant expression of fumarase and malate transporter genes improved the malic acid-to-fumaric acid conversion by engineered S. cerevisiae strains. The efficacy of the strains was significantly influenced by the source of the fumarase gene (yeast versus bacterial), the presence of the XYNSEC signal secretion signal and the available oxygen in synthetic media cultivations. The ΔFUM1Ckr_fum + mae1 and ΔFUM1(ss)Ckr_fum + mae1 strains converted extracellular malic acid into 0.98 and 1.11 g/L fumaric acid under aerobic conditions.
