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

Four lipases were purified from ID17, a thermophilic bacterium belonging to Geobacillus genus isolated from Deception Island, Antarctica. Lipase activity was detected by opacity test and p-nitrophenyl laurate methods. Lipase production was better in a medium containing tryptone as the carbon and nitrogen source, without non-ionic detergents and pH 7.5. Proteins were ultrafiltered from supernatant and separated using anion exchange and size exclusion chromatography resulting in four distinct fractions with lipase activity (called Lip1-4). Purified lipases showed an optimal pH at 9.0, 9.5, 10.0 and 8.0 and temperature at 65, 70, 75 and 80 °C for Lip1-4, respectively. Lip1 and Lip2 showed higher activity using p-nitrophenol decanoate as substrate, whereas Lip3 and Lip4 prefer p-nitrophenol laurate. Based on their molecular weight Lip1 and Lip2 are trimeric and pentameric proteins, respectively, whereas Lip3 and Lip4 are monomeric proteins. Lip1 was exceptionally thermostable maintaining 70 % of its activity after incubating it at 70 °C for 8 h. Based on their characteristics, the four lipases obtained from ID17 are good candidates to understand the mechanisms of lipase stability and to be used in different types of industrial applications.
