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

To explore the chemical and biological diversities of diterpenoids from the fungus Talaromyces adpressus, a previously unknown biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC, tdn) for sordarin (a well-known fungal antibiotics) was discovered by leveraging the genome mining method. Heterologous expressions of key genes of tdn in Aspergillus oryzae, led to the determination of one new diterpenoid, cycloaraneosene-9-ol-8-one (4), and three known diterpenoids, cycloaraneosene (1), cycloaraneosene-9-ol (2), cycloaraneosene-8,9-diol (3). The structures of 1-4 was elucidated well via detailed analysis of 1D and 2D NMR, GCMS, HRESIMS, IR data, and comparison with reported data. Structurally, compounds 1-4 were belonging to fusicoccane diterpenoids with a classical tricyclic 5/8/5 ring system, which are participated in the biosynthesis of sordarin. Compound 4 maybe a key precursor for a Baeyer-Villiger like reaction with C8-C9 bond cleavage in the biosynthetic pathway of sordarin. Moreover, all isolates were evaluated for their bioactivities, compounds 3, and 4 exhibited inhibitory activities against the human cancer cell lines with IC
