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

We have completed a systematic survey of Drosophila melanogaster enzymes, improving the coverage and accuracy of their functional Gene Ontology annotations in FlyBase and collaborating databases. We made >5,000 changes to manual Gene Ontology annotations by reviewing information from the literature and consulting expert databases, resulting in the final verification of 3,708 Drosophila enzyme-encoding genes. Herein, we present an overview of the enzyme landscape in Drosophila, including insights on enzyme paralogs, pseudoenzymes, and enzymatic complexes, and compare these with corresponding datasets for yeast and humans. We also show how the presentation of enzyme data on FlyBase gene reports has been enhanced, including the addition of Enzyme Commission (EC) information and RHEA reaction graphics. For each class of enzyme, we have created a "Gene Group" page in FlyBase to tabulate the group members and facilitate access to related information and tools. Together, this work provides a comprehensive enzyme resource to serve the Drosophila research community and beyond. As a practical example of its utility, we used our improved dataset to update the FlyCyc model of Drosophila metabolism.
