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

Yeasts play a vital role in both research and industrial biomanufacturing. Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been extensively utilized as a model system. However, its application is often constrained by limited tolerance to the diverse stress conditions encountered in bioprocesses. These challenges have driven increasing interest in nonconventional, multistress-tolerant yeasts as alternative biomanufacturing hosts. This review highlights Pichia kudriavzevii as a promising nonconventional yeast for industrial applications. Unlike S. cerevisiae, P. kudriavzevii exhibits exceptional tolerance to high temperatures, elevated concentrations of furanic and phenolic inhibitors, osmotic stress, salinity, and extreme pH. These traits make it an attractive candidate for industrial processes without requiring extensive genetic modifications to enhance stress resistance. As a result, P. kudriavzevii has emerged as a flagship species for advancing bioeconomy. Despite its industrial potential, the molecular mechanisms underlying P. kudriavzevii's superior stress tolerance remain poorly understood. This review compiles current knowledge on P. kudriavzevii and compares its stress tolerance mechanisms with those of S. cerevisiae, providing insights into its innate resilience. By expanding our understanding of nonconventional yeasts, this review aims to facilitate their broader adoption as robust microbial platforms for industrial biomanufacturing.
