Chitinolytic enzymes from Clostridium aminovalericum: activity screening and purification.
Article in Folia microbiologica, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
A strain isolated from the feces of takin was identified as Clostridium aminovalericum. In response to various types of chitin used as growth substrates, the bacterium produced a complete array of chitinolytic enzymes: chitinase ('endochitinase'), exochitinase, beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase, chitosanase and chitin deacetylase. The highest activities of chitinase (536 pkat/mL) and exochitinase (747 pkat/mL) were induced by colloidal chitin. Fungal chitin also induced high levels of these enzymes (463 pkat/mL and 502 pkat/mL, respectively). Crab shell chitin was the best inducer of chitosanase activity (232 pkat/mL). The chitinolytic enzymes of this strain were separated from culture filtrate by ion-exchange chromatography on the carboxylic sorbent Polygran 27. At pH 4.5, some isoforms of the chitinolytic enzymes (30% of total enzyme activity) did not bind to Polygran 27. The enzymes were eluted under a stepwise pH gradient (pH 5-8) in 0.1 mol/L phosphate buffer. At merely acidic pH (4.5-5.5), the adsorbed enzymes were co-eluted. However, at pH close to neutral values, the peaks of highly purified isoforms of exochitinases and chitinases were isolated. The protein and enzyme recovery reached 90%.
