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

A thermostable, alkaline rhamnogalacturonan lyase (RG lyase) CtRGLf, of family 11 polysaccharide lyase from Clostridium thermocellum was cloned, expressed, purified and biochemically characterised. Both, the full-length CtRGLf (80 kDa) protein and its truncated derivative CtRGL (63.9 kDa) were expressed as soluble proteins and displayed maximum activity against rhamnogalacturonan I (RG I). CtRGLf showed maximum activity at 70 °C, while CtRGL at 60 °C. Both enzymes showed maximum activity at pH 8.5. CtRGLf and CtRGL do not show higher activity on substrates with high β-D-galactopyranose (D-Galp) substitution, this catalytic property deviates from that of some earlier characterised RG lyases which prefer substrates with high D-Galp substitution. The enzyme activity of CtRGLf and CtRGL was enhanced by 1.5 and 1.3 fold, respectively, in the presence of 3 mM of Ca(2+) ions. The TLC analysis of the degraded products of RG I, released by the action of CtRGLf and CtRGL revealed the production of RG oligosaccharides as major products confirming their endolytic activity.
