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

An extremely thermophilic bacterial isolate that produces a high titer of thermostable endoxylanase and β-xylosidase extracellularly in an inducible manner was identified as Geobacillus thermodenitrificans TSAA1. The distinctive features of this strain are alkalitolerance and halotolerance. The endoxylanase is active over a broad range of pH (5.0-10.0) and temperatures (30-100 °C) with optima at pH 7.5 and 70 °C, while β-xylosidase is optimally active at pH 7.0 and 60 °C. The T 1/2 values of the endoxylanase and β-xylosidase are 30 min at 80 °C, and 180 min at 70 °C, respectively. The endoxylanase activity is stimulated by dithiothreitol, but inhibited strongly by EDAC and Woodward's reagent K. N-BS and DEPC strongly inhibited β-xylosidase. MALDI-ToF (MS/MS) analysis of tryptic digest of β-xylosidase revealed similarity with that of G. thermodenitrificans NG 80-2, and suggested that this belongs to the GH 52 glycosyl hydrolase super family. The action of endoxylanase on birch wood xylan and agro-residues such as wheat bran and wheat straw liberated xylooligosaccharides similar to endoxylanases of the family 10 glycoside hydrolases, while the enzyme preparation having both endoxylanase and β-xylosidase liberated xylose as main hydrolysis product.
