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

GDP-mannose 3,5-epimerase (GM35E) catalyzes the conversion of GDP-mannose towards GDP-l-galactose and GDP-l-gulose. Although this reaction represents one of the few enzymatic routes towards the production of l-sugars and derivatives, it has not yet been exploited for that purpose. One of the reasons is that so far only GM35Es from plants have been characterized, yielding biocatalysts that are relatively unstable and difficult to express heterologously. Through the mining of sequence databases, we succeeded in identifying a promising bacterial homologue. The gene from the thermophilic organism
