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

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, regulation of the phospholipid biosynthetic genes, INO1, CHO1, CHO2 and OPI3, is known to occur at the level of transcript abundance. Derepression in response to inositol deprivation requires the INO2 and INO4 regulatory genes. Repression in response to inositol supplementation requires the OPI1 regulatory gene. Here, we examined the role of the UME6 global negative regulatory gene in expression of the phospholipid biosynthetic genes. These studies were stimulated by the finding that the INO1 promoter included a UME6 cognate cis-acting regulatory sequence (URS1). We found that the UME6 negative regulatory gene was involved in regulation of phospholipid biosynthetic gene expression through two distinct regulatory pathways. One pathway was the direct repression of INO1 expression through the URS1 element. Surprisingly, the UME6 gene was also required for derepression of CHO1, CHO2 and OPI3 gene expression. Consistent with this observation, the UME6 gene was required for wild-type levels of expression of the INO2 positive regulatory gene. Therefore, the UME6 gene has both a negative and a positive role in regulating phospholipid biosynthesis.
