A comparative study of nitrilases identified by genome mining.
Article in Molecular biotechnology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Escherichia coli strains expressing different nitrilases transformed nitriles or KCN. Six nitrilases (from Aspergillus niger (2), A. oryzae, Neurospora crassa, Arthroderma benhamiae, and Nectria haematococca) were arylacetonitrilases, two enzymes (from A. niger and Penicillium chrysogenum) were cyanide hydratases and the others (from P. chrysogenum, P. marneffei, Gibberella moniliformis, Meyerozyma guilliermondi, Rhodococcus rhodochrous, and R. ruber) preferred (hetero)aromatic nitriles as substrates. Promising nitrilases for the transformation of industrially important substrates were found: the nitrilase from R. ruber for 3-cyanopyridine, 4-cyanopyridine and bromoxynil, the nitrilases from N. crassa and A. niger for (R,S)-mandelonitrile, and the cyanide hydratase from A. niger for KCN and 2-cyanopyridine.
