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

The small GTPase Rho5 has been shown to be involved in regulating the Baker's yeast response to stress on the cell wall, high medium osmolarity, and reactive oxygen species. These stress conditions trigger a rapid translocation of Rho5 and its dimeric GDP/GTP exchange factor (GEF) to the mitochondrial surface, which was also observed upon glucose starvation. We here show that rho5 deletions affect carbohydrate metabolism both at the transcriptomic and the proteomic level, in addition to cell wall and mitochondrial composition. Epistasis analyses with deletion mutants in components of the three major yeast glucose signaling pathways indicate a primary role of Rho5 upstream of the Ras2 GTPase in cAMP-mediated protein kinase A signaling. Together with determinations of protein kinase A activities, glycogen and trehalose measurements they indicate a stimulation of Ras/cAMP signaling by Rho5.
