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

Metabolic engineering allows the production of a variety of high-value chemicals in heterologous hosts. For example, itaconic acid (IA) has been produced in several microorganisms, such as Escherichia coli, Aspergillus niger, and Synechocystis sp. through the expression of cis-aconitate decarboxylase gene (cad) from Aspergillus terreus. Recently, we showed that inactivation of the isocitrate dehydrogenase gene and overexpression of the aconitase gene dramatically enhanced the production levels of IA in E. coli expressing cad. Furthermore, we demonstrated that it is possible to produce IA directly from starch by engineered E. coli that additionally expresses the α-amylase gene from Streptococcus bovis. In this study, we sum up our findings regarding the challenges of IA production in E. coli.
