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

Gene expression and proper downstream cellular functions upon facing environmental shifts depend on the combined and cooperative regulation of genetic networks. Here, we identified cAMP receptor protein (CRP) as a master regulator of (p)ppGpp (guanosine tetra- and penta-phosphate) homeostasis. Via CRP-mediated direct transcriptional regulation of the (p)ppGpp synthetase/hydrolase RelA and SpoT, cAMP-CRP stimulates pervasive accumulation of (p)ppGpp under glucose-limiting conditions. Notably, CRP exerts a nonclassical property as a translational regulator through YfiQ-dependent acetylation of ribosome protein S1 at K247, which further enhances the translation of RelA, SpoT, and CRP itself. From a synthetic biology perspective, this self-activating feedback loop for (p)ppGpp synthesis highlights the function of
