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

Introduction: Methods: Growth activity was assessed at temperatures of 37°C, 40°C, 45°C, and 50°C. Morphological changes were observed by scanning electron microscopy at 37°C, 45°C, and 50°C. Subsequent analysis of the transcriptomics and metabolomics was undertaken to elucidate the molecular mechanism of heat tolerance. Results: The strain was able to tolerate high temperature of 50°C, undergoing substantial morphological alterations. Gene ontology (GO) analysis of the transcriptomics revealed that differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were enriched in pathways such as ATP biosynthesis process and mitochondrion; Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis showed that DEGs were up regulated in oxidative phosphorylation. Utilising liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometer, a total of 463 cationic differential metabolites and 352 anionic differential metabolites were detected and screened for differential substances that were closely related to heat tolerance (NAD+ and ADP); KEGG analysis showed that metabolites were up regulated in purine metabolism. Furthermore, correlation analyses of transcriptomics-metabolomics demonstrated a strong positive correlation between the metabolites NAD+ and ADP, and multiple DEGs of the oxidative phosphorylation pathway. Discussion: These results suggest that the heat tolerant strain can be able to counteract high temperature environment by up regulating energy metabolism (especially oxidative phosphorylation) to increase ATP production.
