Progress and perspectives on improving butanol tolerance.
Review in World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Fermentative production of butanol for use as a biofuel or chemical feedstock is regarded as a promising renewable technology that reduces greenhouse gas emissions and has the potential to become a substitute for non-sustainable chemical production route. However, butanol toxicity to the producing microbes remains a barrier to achieving sufficiently high titers for cost-effective butanol fermentation and recovery. Investigations of the external stress of high butanol concentration on butanol-producing microbial strains will aid in developing improved microbes with increased tolerance to butanol. With currently available molecular tool boxes, researchers have aimed to address and understand how butanol affects different microbes. This review will cover the individual organism's inherent responses to surrounding butanol levels, and the collective efforts by researchers to improve production and tolerance. The specific microorganisms discussed here include the native butanol producer Clostridium species, the fermentation industrial model Saccharomyces cerevisiae and the photosynthetic cyanobacteria, the genetic engineering workhorse Escherichia coli, and also the butanol-tolerant lactic acid bacteria that utilize diverse substrates. The discussion will help to understand the physiology of butanol resistance and to identify specific butanol tolerance genes that will lead to informed genetic engineering strategies for new strain development.
