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

Thermostable proteases are important in biotechnological and industrial sectors, due to their stability against denaturing agents and chemicals. The feature that gives them such unique applicability is their reaction at high temperatures, which affords a high concentration of substrate, and less risk of microbial contamination. Nearly 65% of industrial proteases are isolated from marine microbial source, and they can significantly resist a wide range of organic solvents at high temperatures. The most important trait of marine organisms is their adaptability, which allows them to grow optimally in harsh environments such as high salt, temperatures, and pressure-the characteristics of deep-sea hot springs and geothermal sediments. However, proteases are immunogenic, and they can trigger inflammatory conditions in human; so their safety assessment prior to industrial usage is of paramount importance. This review focusses on marine-origin thermophilic proteases, their thermal resistance, scopes of their industrial applications, and risks.
