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 optimization of nutrient levels for chitinase production by Enterobacter sp. NRG4 in solid-state fermentation conditions (SSF) was carried out using response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CCD). The design was employed by selecting wheat bran-to-flake chitin ratio, moisture level, inoculum size, and incubation time as model factors. The results of first-order factorial design experiments showed that all four independent variables have significant effects on chitinase production. The optimum concentrations for chitinase production were wheat bran-to-flake chitin ratio, 1; moisture level, 80%; inoculum size, 2.6 mL; and incubation time, 168 h. Using this statistical optimization method, chitinase production was found to increase from 616 U . g(-1) dry weight of solid substrate to 1475 U . g(-1) dry weight of solid substrate.
