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

Cell-cycle progression is dependent upon cell growth. Cells must therefore translate growth into a proportional signal that indicates when there has been sufficient growth for cell-cycle progression. In budding yeast, the protein kinase Gin4 is required for normal control of bud growth and undergoes gradual multisite hyperphosphorylation and activation that are dependent upon bud growth and correlated with the extent of growth. Together, these observations suggest that Gin4 functions in mechanisms that measure cell growth. Here, we searched for signals that link Gin4 hyperphosphorylation to cell growth. We found that Elm1, a yeast homologue of mammalian Lkb1 kinases, is sufficient in vitro to induce full hyperphosphorylation of Gin4, and likely works by stimulating extensive autophosphorylation of Gin4. We further discovered that casein kinase Iγ, encoded by the
