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

Endophytic fungi associated with plants may contain undiscovered bioactive compounds. Under standard laboratory conditions, most undiscovered compounds are inactive, whereas their production could be stimulated under different cultivation conditions. In this study, six endophytic fungi were isolated from the bark of Koelreuteria paniculata in Quancheng Park, Jinan City, Shandong Province, one of which was identified as a new subspecies of Aureobasidium pullulans, named A. pullulans KB3. Additionally, metabolomic tools were used to screen suitable media for A. pullulans KB3 fermentation, and the results showed that peptone dextrose medium (PDM) was more beneficial to culture A. pullulans KB3 for isolation of novel compounds. Sphaerolone, a polyketone compound, was initially isolated from A. pullulans KB3 via scaled up fermentation utilizing PDM. Additionally, the whole-genome DNA of A. pullulans KB3 was sequenced to facilitate compound isolation and identify the biosynthesis gene clusters (BGCs). This study reports the multi-omics (metabolome and genome) analysis of A. pullulans KB3, laying the foundation for discovering novel compounds of silent BGCs and identifying their biosynthesis pathway.
