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

Enhancing lipid productivity and reducing oxidative damage is essential for lipid overproduction in microalgae. In this study, addition of 20 mg/L fulvic acid (FA) resulted a 34.4% increase of lipid yield in Schizochytrium sp. Furthermore, the cooperative effect of FA and EDTA on cell growth and lipid production was investigated. The combined addition of 20 mg/L FA and 1.0 g/L EDTA yielded a maximal cell dry weight of 130.7 g/L and lipid productivity of 1.16 g/L/h, representing 36.4% and threefold increase over the non-supplemented group, respectively. Moreover, compared with the non-supplemented group, the combined addition strategy exhibited overall lower levels of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde, which accompanied with 66.7% and 81.9% higher superoxide dismutase and catalase activity, respectively. Furthermore, a 24.1-37.1% increase of malic enzyme and 19.4-25.2% decrease of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase activity was observed during the entire fermentation stage (0-108 h). Results suggested that the combined addition strategy not only enhanced lipid accumulation, but also prevented the lipid peroxidation.
