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

Polythene-degradation products (PE-DPs) produced due to two most efficient polythene degrading fungal isolates (Aspergillus terreus strain MANF1/WL and Aspergillus sydowii strain PNPF15/TS) after 60 days of incubation at ambient temperature with continuous shaking were analyzed by employing GC-MS method. Total 24 PE-DPs were recorded in total 4 samples i) control (pH 3.5), ii) Treatment of Aspergillus terreus strain MANF1/WL (pH 3.5), iii) control (pH 9.5) and iv) Treatment of Aspergillus sydowii strain PNP15/TS (pH 9.5). To check the deleterious status of PE-DPs using both the elite fungal isolates at in vitro level, two living systems (Sorghum and Tiger shark) were used. The percent germination rate of sorghum seeds were found unaffected with PE-DPs of both elite fungi. PE-DPs of both the fungal isolates exhibited maximum germination index at 50%. Whereas, highest elongation inhibition rate (34.75 ± 7.10) was reported with PE-DPs of Aspergillus terreus strain MANF1/WL. In case of animals system, no mortality of the Tiger sharks was documented after fifteen days of the treatment.
